A rich and approachable Primitivo del Salento IGT from Villa Mottura, showcasing the full-bodied elegance of southern Puglia. Made from carefully tended old-vine Primitivo, this wine balances ripe, concentrated fruit with soft, supple texture, reflecting the sun-drenched vineyards and centuries of local winemaking expertise.
Tasting Notes:
Deep ruby in colour, the nose offers vivid aromas of stewed red fruits, cherry, and hints of roasted Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it is rich and luscious, with layers of ripe, dark fruit, soft tannins, and a touch of sweet spice on the finish. The wine is velvety yet lively, combining concentration with freshness.
Winemaking:
Produced from 100% Primitivo, the grapes are harvested at full ripeness and carefully selected to ensure optimal quality. Fermentation takes place under controlled temperatures in stainless steel to preserve aromatic intensity, followed by gentle maturation to refine texture and integrate flavours, resulting in a balanced, fruit-driven wine.
Food Pairing:
Perfect with roasted and grilled meats, slow-cooked stews, pasta with rich sauces, and mature cheeses. Its juicy, concentrated character also complements Mediterranean vegetable dishes and tomato-based recipes.
ABV: 13%
