New in the portfolio of Contessa Marina is the Primitivo di Marina, a selection of excellent wines from Apulia. The grapes for this intense red come from the Salento peninsula and have the Tarantino IGT designation of origin, a relatively small area with 380 hectares of vines that differs qualitatively from simpler Salento wines.

The Primitivo di Marina "14" has a bright ruby ​​red color. The bouquet shows aromas reminiscent of dark berries, cherries, vanilla and herbs. It is opulent on the palate, the tannins are barely perceptible in the abundance of fruit. A Primitivo like from a picture book. Its juicy, semi-dry taste inspires connoisseurs who like it a little milder and rounder.

It was matured partly in steel tanks and partly in small wooden barrels, also known as barriques, which give the wine a delicate, roasted flavor. It is best enjoyed when young, when the fruitiness still dominates. It goes well with pizza and pasta dishes, dark meat and all kinds of grilled dishes. Of course, it also tastes good just like that and is also suitable for larger events due to its smooth nature, as it meets the taste of many people.

One of our most popular rosé wines from the Puglia Primitivo grape. A fruity and dry rosato with notes of strawberries and cherries. Perfectly balanced and stimulatingly fresh.
