Description
Dolceluna is the Primitivo di Manduria Dolce Naturale from the Apulian PietraPura line of the Tuscan Rocca delle Macie. The oenologist of the Zingarelli family company, Luca Francioni, closely follows all the production activities of PietraPura in order to enhance the characteristics of the territory.
The Primitivo clusters are left on the overripening plant and harvested by hand when a high sugar concentration is reached. Followed by fermentation at controlled temperature with indigenous yeasts and a period of aging in French and American oak barrels that lasts for 12 months.
The color is intense ruby red, with violet reflections. The nose has a broad and persistent perfume in which notes of cherry jam and dried figs are recognized, with a beautiful final spacing. On the palate it is soft and with good acidity, with pleasant hints of honey.
Excellent to accompany almond cakes and fruit tarts in general. The combination with particularly tasty seasoned cheeses is interesting.
