Visconti della Rocca Primitivo 2023
Intense, fruity Primitivo full of jammy plum fruit and savoury spice. Smooth-textured with a lick of vanilla on the finish.
The grapes were harvested in the first half of September. After a seven-day maceration period, fermentation took place at controlled temperatures between 23° and 26° C, with the addition of selected yeasts. After a gentle clarification, the must was moved to large Slavonian oak casks to age for six months.

Puglia is a great hunting-ground for exuberant, characterful wines, especially from late-ripening varieties well adapted to soak up all the southern sunshine. Visconti della Rocca offers a juicy, greengage-scented Fiano and a spicy, plummy Primitivo, which share a refreshing balance and outstanding value for money.
