From the union of diverse lands in southern Italy comes a collection of wines that exalts their peculiarities. A work of selection, vinification, and refinement that translates into bottles capable of telling unique stories and flavors.
A journey through southern Italy: Abruzzo, Campania, Apulia, Sicily, and Sardinia meet in a line of wines that celebrate the oenological richness. Different lands, fine grapes, and skilled vinification merge into glasses of different shades, from white to red, passing through rosé. A toast to the excellences of Southern Italy, preserved in every bottle like a precious treasure.
It pairs perfectly with grilled meat dishes, stew and aged cheeses.
The grapes used for Boccantino Primitivo are grown using the vine training method known as “Alberello”, which has ancient origins and is typical of the Mediterranean area of Italy. It was developed to compensate the lack of water and the very hot climate. The now very rare Alberello system represents a very important part of the cultural and oenological heritage of Apulia. The rigorous handpicking is followed by a meticulous selection of the destemmed grapes. The grape withering on plants, favored by the sea wind, and a slow maturation in French oak barrels for about 6 months results in an outstanding full-bodied wine with soft tannins that release vanilla notes in the finish.
Boccantino Primitivo, with its ruby red color and its complex bouquet, is characterized by intense and fine aromas that go from mature fruit to spicy notes.
