SALENTO VINEYARDS ZOLLA PRIMITIVE DI MANDURIA FANTINI WINES

Grape variety: Primitivo di Manduria

Production area: Municipalities of Manduria and Sava, Salento Winemaking: Destemming and pressing of the grapes, maceration at a controlled temperature for 8-10 days with regular pumping over. Drainage and milk fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Aging in American and French oak barriques for 6-8 months.

Sensory Characteristics: The wine has a bright red color with dark purple reflections. It is superb on the nose: notes of ripe plum, berries, vanilla and a light sprinkling of pepper mix in a full and rich aroma. The taste is equally satisfied: the refinement in barrique gives the wine softness, while respecting the velvety and non-invasive tannicity.

Gastronomic pairings: At the table it goes perfectly with all the dishes of the Apulian culinary tradition such as horse steaks, baked lamb, stews, game and meatballs with sauce. It is also the ideal wine for pairing with grilled, stewed and tasty roast second courses.
