Primitivo di Manduria Riserva SAN GAETANO DOC DUE PALME

This wine from the Due Palme winery in Puglia is made exclusively from Primitivo grapes. The grapes used to produce this red wine are grown on calcareous clay-loam soils rich in iron oxide. Once harvested in late August-early September, the slightly overripe grapes undergo temperature-controlled fermentation for about ten days. The long ageing process takes place in French and American oak barriques and finally in the bottle.
