Manduria is located in southern Puglia – the center of the heel of the boot - and is Primitivo's spiritual home. It is the only viticultural area in Italy to specialize in the variety. While Primitivo and Zinfandel are genetically identical, Primitivo is a slightly different clone, one that ripens earlier and more evenly and offers more blackberry, anise and pepper notes. And lower alcohol, so no “Zin headaches!”
Loaded with cherry and plum flavors, accented by seductive spice notes, this wine is lush and rich, yet balanced by bright acidity and fine tannins. Primitivo also offers more tannins than Zinfandel, making this a killer match with grilled and stewed meats, and, really, all kinds of "comfort" foods. Lamb is the most common meat in Puglia… hmmm… grilled lamb chops as a special treat? Or go with your own "comfort" foods - ribs, burgers, chicken... this is a workhorse grape suited for it all!
