Vinification of the Luccarelli Campo Marina Primitivo di Manduria

This wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, namely Primitivo. Only first-class grapes were used for this wonderfully powerful single-varietal wine from Luccarelli. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Apulia. Here, the vines dig their roots deep into soils of clay and sand. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are transported to the winery as quickly as possible. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks and small wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. The fermentation is followed by maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
