Product information on "UNO Primitivo di Manduria DOC Riserva by Masseria La Volpe" from Puglia
The UNO Primitivo di Manduria DOC Riserva from Masseria La Volpe stands for the concentrated power of Puglia and the full expressiveness of the Primitivo grape variety. This wine is the result of careful selection and long aging – intense, warm, and at the same time remarkably balanced.
In the glass, it presents a deep ruby red with dark, almost violet reflections. The bouquet is rich and complex: ripe plums, black cherries, and blackberries combine with notes of chocolate, licorice, and fine spices, accompanied by subtle roasted aromas and a hint of Mediterranean herbs.
Vinification involves long maceration to optimally extract structure, color, and aromatic depth. Subsequently, the wine matures for a longer period in oak barrels, which gives it its smooth tannins, additional complexity, and characteristic Riserva depth.
On the palate, the UNO Riserva is full-bodied, dense, and harmonious. The fruit is concentrated and juicy, the tannins are soft and well integrated, and the acidity provides balance despite its power. The finish is long, warm, and spicy, with lingering notes of dark fruit and fine wood.
