Description

At harvest time, part of the grapes are handpicked and vinified according to the traditional red wine vinification; the remaining are left drying on the vines and picked-up later, when completely dried (whitering process “appassimento”). As soon as fermentation of the the Primitivo grapes from the first harvest is completed, the obtained wine is «re-passed» on the dried Primitivo grapes pomace which is very concentrated and rich in aromas and sugars. As a consequence a second fermentation starts increasing the alcohol percentage, the reducing sugar content and giving the final wine a deeper color and a richer aromas grapesbouquet.

Deep ruby red colour with violet reflexen. Generous bouquet with fruity aromas of blackberries, cherries, sour cherries and plums. Herbaceous hints of balsamic herbs. Floreal notes. Full bodied and balanced, with intense fruity return. Nice acidity and velvety tannins. Long and dry finish.
