Cosimo Varvaglione Primitivo Manduria DOP

The Cosimo Collezione Privata comes from a hand-picked selection of grapes from individual clusters of very old vines that have been cultivated for decades in an old family tradition.

This red wine impresses with an enchanting taste reminiscent of red fruit jam as well as a broad spectrum of aromas of herbs and spices.

With its elegant finish, it pairs perfectly with "Bombette pugliesi" (grilled pork neck roulades) or the typical lamb roast with vegetables, the "Agnello arosto".

The Winery

Varvaglione 1921

The family winery Varvaglione is located not far from the Ionian coast with a view of the Gulf of Taranto and the city of the same name, also known as “the city of the two seas,” which is washed by the Ionian Sea along the coast and by the inland sea “Mare Piccolo.”

The soils on which the vines grow are of different types, but mainly calcareous clay with fossils and iron oxides, which give the soil its typical reddish color.

The iron present in the soil helps with drainage and avoids stagnation after rainfall, and for this reason, the red earth is among the most suitable for wine production.
