The wine

Primitivo di Manduria Talò, a pure Primitivo, a red wine of remarkable intensity and character. From grapes cultivated not far from the sea, a full-bodied red where you can taste the minerality and balsamicity, as well as the elegance of the tannin and the explosion of fragrant red fruit, typical of Puglia's best-known variety in the world. 

San Marzano is a small town in the center of the Primitivo di Manduria doc, a strip of land kissed by the two seas in Salento, the Ionian and the Adriatic. In 1962 the doc was not born yet, the Primitivo di Manduria is far from being that cult wine, as it has become for wine lovers. Yet 19 winemakers come together to follow a dream and establish Cantine San Marzano.

It is vinified on the skins with a maceration period of about 10 days. It then matures in French and American oak barriques for about 6 months. 

What does this wine taste like?

At first glance it is an intense red colour with violet hues. The bouquet displays the typical aromas of its variety, which open up on the palate to give a full, harmonious and finely tannic taste. The opulent bouquet is reminiscent of ripe cherries and plums with pleasant notes of cocoa and vanilla.
