  • Red Wine
  • Grape Variety: Primitivo
  • Case Size: 6 x 75cl
  • ABV: 13.5% vol
  • Opulent aromas of overripe black cherries, blackberries, and plums, lifted by refined notes of tobacco. The palate is soft, warm, and intensely concentrated, delivering depth and richness with a lingering sweetness — a wine for quiet reflection or after-dinner enjoyment.
  • From 30-year-old vines, with grapes harvested late and left to over-ripen on the vine. Fermentation and maceration last 20 days at carefully controlled temperatures to balance the naturally high sugar content. Alcoholic fermentation is intentionally halted to preserve generous residual sugar, creating a full-bodied, expressive style.
  • A rare, late-harvest red that marries richness and elegance — velvety, concentrated, and crafted to be savoured slowly as a meditative wine.

Description

From 30-year-old vines, this wine reveals aromas of overripe black cherries, blackberries, and plums, with elegant tertiary notes of tobacco. On the palate, it is soft, warm, and intensely concentrated — a wine of depth and richness, ideal for after meals or quiet reflection. Grapes are harvested late, left to over-ripen on the vine. Fermentation and maceration occur over 20 days at a carefully controlled temperature, adapted to the naturally high sugar levels. Alcoholic fermentation is halted before completion to preserve a generous residual sugar content, resulting in a full-bodied and expressive wine.
