Rich, characterful, southern red from the Manduria zone in the Salento region. This is the heartland of Primitivo, famed for generous, concentrated wines from old unirrigated bush vines.
Production
Produced from the local Primitivo variety cultivated in the Salento peninsula of the Puglia region, southern Italy. Grapes were sourced from selected vineyards between 20 and 60 years old and hand harvested in early September. Fermentation took place at 28 to 30C with daily pumping over and 10 days contact with the skins. After malolactic fermentation the wine was bottled without oak aging.

Tasting notes
Aromas of bramble fruit, black cherry and a hint of sweet spice. The palate is richly flavoured with plum and wild cherry fruit, a hint of dried figs, and ripe tannins balanced by fresh acidity.
Food match
The perfect partner to grilled meats, pasta dishes with meat or spicy sauces and hearty stews.

Established in 2003, Adria Vini is a winemaking venture jointly owned by Boutinot and Araldica Castelvero, the leading co-operative in the Monferrato hills of Piemonte. Our aim is to produce authentic, well-priced still and sparkling wines from local grape varieties. All aspects of production, from grape selection through to vinification, maturation, blending and bottling are meticulously overseen by Araldica's winemaking team of Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese - assisted by Boutinot's Tony Brown MW. We source from a range of private growers and cooperatives, with whom we have long term relationships, principally in Veneto, Friuli, Lombardy, Sicily, Puglia, Abruzzo and Sardinia.
