Neprica Primitivo Puglia IGT - Tormaresca

The nose of this red wine from Apulia enchants with aromas of blackcurrant, plum, black cherry and mulberry. If we explore the aromas further, dark chocolate, black tea and oriental spices are added.

The Tormaresca Neprica Primitivo Puglia is pleasantly dry for the wine connoisseur. This red wine is never coarse or austere, but round and smooth. This dense and melting red wine is full-bodied and complex on the palate. The Neprica Primitivo Puglia is wonderfully fresh and lively on the palate thanks to its present fruit acidity. The finish of this youthful red wine from the wine-growing region of Apulia, more precisely from Puglia IGT, impresses with a remarkable aftertaste.

Vinification of the Tormaresca Neprica Primitivo Puglia

This powerful red wine from Italy is made from the Primitivo grape variety. The grapes for this red wine from Italy are harvested exclusively by hand at optimum ripeness. After the grape harvest, the grapes are transported to the winery as quickly as possible. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally drawn off. Ageing in oak barrels is followed by a long maturation in the bottle, which makes this red wine even more complex.
