Feudi Salentini Sassirossi Primitivo di Manduria DOP 2024

Sassirossi is a Primitivo di Manduria DOP from Puglia, made from Primitivo grapes grown on bush-trained alberello vines. The wine is macerated at a controlled temperature, then aged in French tonneaux for at least eight months. It balances power with elegance, a red that ties the Primitivo grape to the Salento. It is deep ruby with violet reflections. The nose recalls blackcurrant, blackberry and cherry jam, with a touch of liquorice and cocoa behind. The palate is full-bodied and well balanced. It suits pasta with meat sauces, stews, grilled red meat and braised dishes.
