Varvaglione Papale Primitivo di Manduria, Puglia, Italy 2016

Description

Primitivo di Manduria is a key red-wine DOC of Italy's southern Puglia region. In addition to the standard dry wines, there is also a sweet version of the wine: Primitivo di Manduria Dolce Naturale.
Primitivo, the grape variety from which these wines are made, is very traditional in this part of Italy – as it is in California, where it is known as Zinfandel. Manduria is Primitivo's spiritual home (even if the variety arrived there from Croatia), and the only viticultural area in Italy to specialize in the variety.
The Primitivo grapes are harvested in the oldest vineyards located near the Ionian Sea, planted as trees with a yield per hectare is very low and excellent quality. The color is intense ruby red with beautiful purple hues. The aromas are very intense and evoke feelings such as fruit jam and blackcurrant, blackberry, cherry, cocoa and liquorice. The taste is a round wine, smooth, with a persistent finish tending to aromatic. Suitable to accompany any meal, but also seasoned soups with meat sauces, gravies, stews, grilled red meats and braised.
