Salento IGT Primitivo Il Rosso dei Vespa 2015 Vespa Vignaioli per Passione

The Primitivo Salento Rosso dei Vespa was born in vineyards located in the Tarantino municipality of Manduria, in Puglia.

It is produced with 100% Primitivo grapes, harvested and selected by hand at the end of September. Fermentation takes place, with maceration on the skins, in stainless steel for 10 days, with numerous punching down. After malolactic fermentation, the wine ages in French oak barriques for 6 months, before being bottled.

Rosso dei Vespa has a ruby red color with violet reflections. The nose opens with notes of cherry and cinnamon, enriched with hints of chocolate. On the palate it is elegant and fruity, with a dense tannic texture and a long and persistent finish.

Ideal in combination with first courses and red meats, this pure primitive is perfect to accompany game.
