Description

The Primitivo di Manduria Altermura di Masseria Altemura comes from vineyards located in the Agro Torre di Santa Susanna, in the heart of Salento.

It is produced exclusively with Primitivo grapes, harvested only by hand at advanced ripeness. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 25-28 ° C, for 21 days. Subsequently the wine ages for 14 months in French oak tonneaux and for another 8 months in bottle, before being released on the market.

It is characterized by a very intense red color, with purple hues. The nose opens with intense hints of red and black fruits, almost in jam. In the mouth it is soft, warm and enveloping.

Perfect in combination with savory and spicy first courses, it is ideal to accompany red meats and aged cheeses.
