Comments:	Primitivo vines 30 to 50 years old cultivated in sandy soil using the alberello pugliese (little Apulian tree) method, produce the grapes used for this wine. After maceration in temperature-controlled glass-coated cement vats until the sugar content is below 15-30 grams per liter at the fermentation temperature of 27°-30°C (80.6°-86°F,) the wine is stored partly in glass-coated cement vats, partly in French and American oak barriques, and partly in iron vats, assembling it before bottling. Wild berry perfume hits the nose and it is of an intense red color. This wine is a perfect pair to Mediterranean cuisine recipes.
