Description

Primitivo and Susumaniello grapes come from our vineyards in Salento. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 25-28°C over a period of 10 days. During the maceration frequent pumping over is carried out to extract the noble compounds from the skins. After the malolactic fermentation, the blended wine ages in oak before being bottled.
