Vigneti del Salento Zolla Primitivo
TASTING NOTE
The big brother of longtime staff favourite, the I Muri Primitivo. Suitable for vegetarians, this wine has intense and complex perfumes of red cherries and blackberries, with some spice and leather which follow on to the palate. It has a rich and velvety texture and great length.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER
The Vigneti del Salento vineyards are mostly situated in the communes of Manduria and Sava on the Southern "heel" of Italy. Production is lower than its potential, which ensures the best quality grapes are selected. 80% of the grapes come from old bush vines and the rest from trained vines that are at least 20 years old.
Winemaker Filippo Baccalaro was attracted to Puglia by the rich, ripe flavours of the fruit, and the potential to capture these flavours with minimal use of technology and a lot of know-how.
