Description
Nèprica Primitivo rises from the vineyards of Tormaresca which extend along the Adriatic coast of Apulia, contained between the pine forests and the sea. The company's goal is to produce great wines from the region's native vines.
It is produced exclusively with Primitivo grapes. After pressing, the must ferment in stainless steel for 8–10 days at a temperature kept below 26 °C. Once the malolactic fermentation is over, the wine ages first in steel for 8 months and for another 4 months in bottle.
It has an intense ruby red colour with a slight purple vein. Fruity hints of plum stand out on the nose, blending perfectly with notes of licorice and anise. On the palate, it is soft and structured, in excellent balance between freshness and round tannins.
Perfect to combine with lamb or first courses with ragout, it goes well with medium-aged cheeses.
