Cantina Sava Ritardatario Primitivo 2018
Varietiy: Primitivo 100%
Sensory Features: Ruby red color with violet dark hints. Intense, complex, fruity aroma, with notes of small red fruits (cherries and blackberries). Velvety and soft texture, warm and quite tannic, with great taste-olfactory persistence.
Production Area: Salento, Puglia, Italy.
Vineyards: Our grapes are located in one of the most fascinating areas of the Alto Salento, between Sava and Manduria, in the heart of the production area of Primitivo di Manduria. The warmth of the sun and the proximity to the Ionian Sea are the most important factors for the production of Primitivo di Manduria. This land gives life to the typical bush vines, “albarello” of over 30 years old which give to the wine a unique aromatic characteristic.
Vinification: De-stemming and crushing of the grapes, maceration at a controlled temperature for 8-10 days with regular pumping overs. Draining off and malo-lactic fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. Refining in used American and French oak barriques for the next 6-8 months.
Best served with: It goes particularly well with first courses based on tasty sauces like pasta with ragù, meat ravioli, red meat (roasts, grilled meat and game) and seasoned cheeses.
