Vinification of I Tratturi Primitivo from Cantine San Marzano

The grapes for the I Tratturi Primitivo come from the sun-drenched vineyards of Apulia. The vines grow on calcareous soils, which provide the grapes with a special minerality. The grapes are hand-picked, allowing for a selective selection of the best fruits.

After the harvest, a gentle processing takes place. The grapes are destemmed and softly pressed. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruity aromas. Subsequently, the wine matures for several months in oak barrels, which adds further complexity and structure.

This wine reflects the tradition and craftsmanship of Cantine San Marzano and perfectly showcases the essence of Apulian viticulture.
