• Primitivo is practically synonymous with Puglia and the south of Italy. If you truly want to experience the quality of a fine Primitivo di Manduria, try this wine. It must be said that the Primitivo di Manduria is slightly different from the rest of Puglia. Manduria has a privileged location, right in the middle of the Salento peninsula.This allows the marine breeze coming from both the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea to refresh the vineyard. The soil is composed of limestone with iron oxide fossils, giving it a distinctive red color. This soil is also known as Terra Rossa and it is typical of the Mediterranean region.The climate is ideal too, with mild winters and extremely hot summers and according to Decanter, "Primitivo is the most sun-loving grape I have seen." It goes well with dark and white meat from the grill or from the oven. Also a pleasant red wine with pasta dishes with spicy sauces as well as spicy cheeses. Its elegance and structure make it a perfect wine for romantic evenings or important dinners
  • The Primitivo Paolo Leo Pass of the Cardinal is an ancient grape grape cultivated in Apulia, whose grapes present a very early maturation in comparison to other varieties, the name of which explains. One of the most interesting particularities of the Primitivo is the fact that, at a distance of only 20 days from the harvest, these grape vines are able to give a discreet second production of grapes. Traditionally, the fruits of this "second harvest" are used to increase the freshness of these ponderous wines, improving the deimosti acidity obtained from the first harvesting. The great body of the Primitivo di Manduria di Passo del Cardinale is able to enhance fine meats with a rigorous structure. Sliced ​​beef and grilled steaks are the backdrop for a panoramic photograph. A touch of Puglia with orecchiette with chops sauce can be a gastronomic journey with which you can surprise your guests.
