The Lacrime Primitivo di Manduria Riserva 14.5% Vol. 0.75 l is a noble, powerful red wine from Apulia that shows the full potential of the Primitivo grape variety from the famous Manduria growing region to perfection. The designation Riserva stands for particularly high-quality wines that have been matured for at least two years - part of which in oak barrels - to develop depth, structure and complexity. The vineyards are located in the heart of Salento, where chalky soils, hot days and cool nights give the grapes their intense flavour and concentration.


The grapes are harvested late and selectively to achieve maximum ripeness and flavour density. After fermentation, the wine matures for 12 to 18 months in wooden barrels before harmonising further in the bottle. The result is a deep, velvety and harmonious red wine that combines Mediterranean warmth, intense fruit and fine spice in an ideal balance - a prime example of the style of Primitivo di Manduria Riserva.
