Torrevento Since 1913 2021 Puglia Primitivo

A red wine from Puglia made from Primitivo, from bush-trained vines. It ferments with long skin maceration, rests for ten months in steel and for one year in large wooden casks. Ruby red with abundant purple glints, it opens with black cherries and sour cherry, then sweet spices, undergrowth, tobacco and cocoa. The palate is warm, rightly tannic and pleasantly fresh in the finish, with good persistence. It suits red meats and rich first courses of Puglian cuisine, such as baked pasta with meatballs.
