How we made this wine
Primitivo means "the early one" - and is among the first of the southern Italian varieties to ripen. The grapes reach optimal ripeness in mid August and are harvested at the ideal moment. After a careful destemming, the grapes are crushed and placed in the tanks where the fermentation will take place. The wine remain in contact with the skins for about 10-12 days. During this time, Casa Marrone Primitivo gets its deep, ruby color, velvety tannins and deep flavors of ripe plum and cherries. Finally, the wine rest in tanks of stainless steel before it reaches your glass.
