For many, Primitivo is the very symbol of enological Apulia. A versatile grape variety strongly linked to its territory, over the years it has been able to carve out an increasingly important place for itself in the panorama of national viticulture. The one proposed here by Cantele is an IGT Salento, the result of harvesting grapes from both sides of the region. From the province of Taranto, which faces the Ionian Sea, and from the province of Brindisi, which instead insists on the Adriatic. Another particularity of this wine concerns the vine-training system which, as is traditional in this region, is partly bush-trained. An ancient system that makes it possible to obtain quality grapes but forces the wine-growers to work extra hard, since very little in this case can be mechanised. Matured in barriques for about 6 months, this Salento Primitivo presents itself in the glass with a beautiful ruby red colour, with an evident garnet rim. The aromas are clean and mineral, recalling morello cherry, black cherry and plum. In addition, flowers and sweet spices, the latter due to the moderate passage in wood. In the mouth, one then discovers non-aggressive tannins and a pleasant acidity that perfectly balances the softness due to the typical strong alcohol content. An elegant and elegant wine.
