Primitivo Gioia Del Colle Doc Riserva - Plantamura

The barrel-aged Primitivo Gioia Del Colle DOC Riserva from the Apulia wine-growing region presents itself in the glass with a dense ruby red color.

When the glass is swirled, this red wine reveals high viscosity, which shows in pronounced church windows on the glass. On the nose, this Plantamura red wine displays all kinds of blueberries, mulberries, blackberries and blackcurrants.

Thanks to the balanced acidity, the Primitivo Gioia Del Colle DOC Riserva caresses the palate with a silky mouthfeel, without lacking juicy liveliness at the same time.
