100% PRIMITIVO DI MANDURIA

Primitivo first showed up in government records in the 1870s, whereas church records revealed that Primitivo was identified in the late 1700s by Don Francesco Filippo Indellicati, a priest from Gioia del Colle. He spotted the grape that ripened earlier compared to other varieties, hence the name: Primitivo, as in “primis” , the first one to ripen. Don Francesco named it, isolated it and from central Puglia, it spread south to Manduria (today the most esteemed of Primitivo DOCs) and down the heel of the boot. Undoubtedly, the area that became home of this grape is Manduria, where it thrives in the all year round warm and sunny climate, caressed by the breeze coming in from the Ionic See. The soil is named terra rossa, the redness of the soil being given by the presence of iron oxides. 


This bright cherry wine has a bouquet wrapped in chocolate and clove, with vanilla and cocoa notes and vibrant fruitiness. It has a lingering finish of sweet licorice and figs. A perfect pair for roast meats, game stews and meat sauces.
