Primitivo di Manduria DOP 2021 Salsedine

The Primitivo di Manduria from the Salsedine winery is a true symphony of emotions, an invitation to a sensorial journey through the coasts of Puglia. This elegant wine is the result of a perfect fusion between sea and land, an oenological representation of the Apulian landscape and its coasts.

Made with only Primitivo grapes, harvested by hand in the first half of September. Fermentation takes place for approximately 10 days with maceration on the skins and temperature control, maintained between 24 and 26°C. Once the malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine ages first in steel tanks and then in French and American oak barrels for 12 months.

It presents an intense ruby red color, which anticipates the richness of its bouquet. On the nose it offers a broad and complex aromatic profile, dominated by fruity notes with hints of plum and cherry jam and enriched by nuances of tobacco. In the mouth it is full-bodied and well balanced, soft and with elegant tannins.

It pairs ideally with tasty first courses, red meats and game, where its richness and complexity find perfect harmony with the intense and robust flavors of these dishes.
