About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow in Puglia at 330–380 metres above sea level, mainly on north-facing sites with limestone soils. The vines are 8–10 years old.

Grapes

The Primitivo component is identified as Racemi di Primitivo.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand in mid-August. The wine is made by the traditional ancestral method: the first fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks, after which it is bottled without filtration.

Ageing

The wine ages on its lees for 36 months.

Serving and pairing

Serve in a flute glass.
