Quick Overview

Primitivo is the forefather of Zinfandel, star of the Californian wine movement and has been grown in southern Italy for millennia. A modern, upfront wine, with a deep, rich red colour and a bright berry fruit nose suited to the rich dishes of Puglia.

Product Description

After de-stemming, the grapes are not crushed allowing the berries to remain intact and reducing damage to the skins. This extremely gentle method gives softer tannins and ensures optimum colour extraction. Selected yeasts are added in order to initiate fermentation. Frequent remontage, and delestage are carried out in the early stages of fermentation in order to achieve a soft extraction of aromas and gentle tannins.
