    "Quota 29" Primitivo Rosé Salento IGT 2023
  • Imagine Salento, a land kissed by the sun and washed by the Adriatic Sea. Here, where the red earth turns pink at sunset, Quota 29, Rosato IGT Salento is born from Primitivo grapes. This indigenous grape variety finds its ideal habitat in Salento. Here, the grapes are cultivated on medium-textured clay soils, on plants with an average age of 15 years. Harvesting is manual and takes place from the fourth week of August. By then the grapes have reached perfect ripeness. In the cellar we start with a cold maceration in the press for 6 hours, which enhances the varietal aromas of the Primitivo and allows the right extraction of colour from the skins. Fermentation takes place in steel at a controlled temperature, preserving the wine's freshness and fragrance. This is followed by an ageing period of 3 months on fine lees, again in steel, to complete the process. In the glass, this rosé has a brilliant cherry pink colour that immediately catches the eye. On the nose, the bouquet is captivating, with floral and mineral scents intertwined with notes of pomegranate, plum, raspberry and Gallic rose. In the mouth, it is structured, velvety and enveloping, with a vibrant acidity that lends freshness and persistence. The finish is long and persistent, with currant aromas that complete the sensory experience. A must-try with raw shellfish, as well as vegetarian dishes or fresh cheeses. Also excellent with not too spicy Asian dishes.

    Menhir was born in the early 2000s from the dream of Gaetano Marangelli, an Apulian agricultural entrepreneur with a passion for his land and its indigenous grape varieties. From a small business project, in the space of 'relatively' few years, Menhir has turned into a reference wine reality, with a production of over a million bottles that carry the name of Apulia throughout the world. The beating heart of Menhir are the native Apulian vines, such as Negroamaro, Primitivo, Susumaniello and Malvasia Nerai, cultivated with respect for the land and according to the principles of sustainability. Menhir is inspired by the winemaking tradition of Apulia, reinterpreting it in a modern and innovative way. In fact, the company invests in cutting-edge technology and sustainable farming practices to produce wines of the highest quality that reflect the region's unique terroir.
