Primitivo is one of the most important grape varieties in southern Italy and owes its name to its early ripening. According to scholarly research, this grape may have ancient Croatian origins and was initially imported and cultivated in the Gioia del Colle area, before spreading throughout Puglia. Arpago, the Primitivo wine proposed here by i Pàstini, comes from grapes harvested by hand in boxes in the Taranto area. Vinification with long maceration and refinement in steel for 10 months, followed by at least another two months in the bottle. In the glass it has a beautiful ruby red colour with violet reflections. Shades that tend to become garnet with ageing. Its character is decidedly fruity, with intense notes of wild berries. Harmonious and enveloping, this Primitivo goes well with cured meats. But also with savoury meat dishes, roast or stewed lamb and, more generally, with game dishes with tasty gravies.
Pastinum', in Latin, was the hoe. And, by direct derivation, it also indicated the land destined for vines. Pàstino, on the other hand, is an ancient and difficult art that involves planting traditional vines in stone. Today, finally, the "i Pàstini" winery, in the heart of the Itria Valley, the land of trulli, represents the last line of defence of the ancient local traditions, fortunately combined with the most modern winemaking techniques. The result is a line of wines that represents the best of Apulian oenology. To do this, the company can count on grapes from the estate's vineyards, which lie in the heart of one of the most interesting areas of the region, between the towns of Locorotondo and Martina Franca. About 12 hectares in total, managed with passion by the Carparelli family. Among the vines grown are Verdeca, Bianco d'Alessano and Minutolo. White grape varieties that confirm the ancient viticultural vocation of our long "heel".
