Vigne Vecchie, which means “old vines” is 100% primitivo and was one of the first in Puglia to proudly bear the name of the vine on the label. Made from certified organic grapes, an extremely clean and classic wine.
Tasting Notes
With an intense ruby red colour, Vigne Vecchie is vigorous to the nose while on the palate it is dense and pleasantly soft. The aromas are full of ripe fruits and blackberries with hints of sweet spices
When tasted, the fruits appear on the palate supported by a good alcoholic structure; the very fine tannins emerge in successive moments and support the taste memory. Ideal with roasts, game, braised meats, salami and aged cheeses.
