La Pruina Vini ILMO RISERVA Primitivo di Manduria 2020, 0,75 L

This Primitivo di Manduria Riserva fulfils every desire for a wine with robust intensity and roasted aromas. It's a wine that boldly asserts itself with broad shoulders and doesn't hold back. Primitivo Riserva embodies everything that defines Primitivo di Manduria: a deep, dark, opaque wine that announces its character unmistakably on the nose. Expect abundant red fruits, pronounced plum and dried fruit aromas, accompanied by generous notes of vanilla, chocolate, and coffee.

From the first sip, it exudes power—far from being a soft drink. Rich roasted coffee and cocoa flavours, intertwined with juicy dark berry characteristics typical of Primitivo, dominate the palate. Firm yet ripe tannins complement a noticeable acidity and a touch of sweetness. Extensive ageing in wood adds layers of complexity, imparting distinctive liquorice flavours, vanilla, and hints of rum-soaked fruit.

This wine is truly unique, with its quintessential Primitivo flavours, pronounced fruit sweetness, and bold character that may not appeal to everyone.

For aficionados of Primitivo, this wine eclipses others in its category without question. Missing out would be a regrettable oversight.

Pair Ilmo Riserva splendidly with robust meat dishes, especially steak or spicy barbecue. For an exceptional experience, serve slightly chilled to enhance its complexity and balance.
