Vinification of Confini Primitivo Puglia IGT 1.0L by Pietra Pura

The Primitivo grapes are cultivated in the sun-drenched areas of Southern Italy, specifically in the Apulia region. The grapes thrive on calcareous soils known for their ability to enhance mineralities and powerful fruit aromas. The vines grow in a predominantly warm climate with sufficient cool night air, promoting optimal ripening and balancing the sugars and acids.

The grapes are carefully hand-harvested to select only ripe fruit.

The vinification begins with gentle destemming followed by a temperature-controlled mash fermentation. This technique preserves the fresh fruit aromas and allows for an intense extraction of colorants and tannins. During fermentation, the must is regularly stirred to enhance aromatics and achieve a consistent structure.

The aging process takes place in stainless steel tanks, which preserve the wine's freshness and purity. A small portion matures in French oak barriques, imparting Confini Primitivo Puglia IGT 1.0L by Pietra Pura with elegant vanilla notes and a subtle spiciness.

Finally, the wine undergoes extended maturation on fine lees, which further refines it and adds a smooth texture.
