Pizzicanto Primitivo Salento IGT

Dry red wine
2020

Pizzicanto takes you by the hand and leads you to the discovery of a twilight Salento; restless. Treading the delicate line that separates day from night, light from shadows, is our Salento IGT Primitivo (red). Made in Torricella by Giordano Wine Makers, it is the result of a careful selection of the most mature and expressive grapes grown where climate and land offer the best cradle possible. Intense, passionate, inspired: a red that speaks of the wonder of Salento; a guardian of secrets to be discovered sip by sip.

Characteristics

The colour is dark red with garnet reflections and swirling venation that fill the gaze with promises of taste. Olfactory profile that is typical of the vine, with intense notes of ripe fruit and very slight shadows of spice. On the palate it excites emotion: velvety, well-structured, full. The wine's sojourn in wood gives Salento IGT Primitivo evocative spicy notes and sculpts its roughness to produce a soft and fascinating character.

Characteristics

Pizzicanto plays a game of glances: the Salento IGT Primitivo Rosato reveals itself in the glass, wearing a bright, intense and brilliant pink. The bouquet collects and enhances the olfactory notes characteristic of the territory, with delicate floral expressions and sugary notes of fruit. Tasting holds true to the character of Primitivo, proudly structured in body and changeable in the sinuous dimension of its aromas; sustained by a particularly accentuated fruity vein, it closes with a long and fragrant finish.
