Zolla Primitivo di Manduria
The Zolla Primitivo di Manduria, which regularly wins top awards, is an Italian red wine from Apulia. More precisely, from the heart of Salento, in Manduria. This region is renowned for producing the finest wines from the Primitivo grape. The oenologists Filippo Baccalaro and Teo d'Apolito of Vigneti del Salento are responsible for this Primitivo. They are among the top winemakers in Salento. With passionate dedication and meticulous attention to detail, they have created the perfect conditions for producing wines of the highest caliber. The result is a terroir-driven wine, perfectly suited for the international market, with body and richness. This Primitivo, made from the grape of the same name, presents itself in a ruby-red color with violet hues. The complex, slightly spicy bouquet is intense and dominated by a fruity aroma with notes of small red fruits (cherries and blackberries). Due to the short barrel aging, subtle roasted notes of caramel and toasted bread waft to the nose, followed by delicate hints of black tea. On the palate, this is a well-balanced and smooth wine, aromatically caressed by velvety tannins and a delicious interplay of fruit. The long, elegant finish is crowned with delicate cocoa nuances. A wine with a truly special character.

Simply different
A great wine for the price. Dark red, very much fruit bread without being sweet. I would say it is more of a dry wine that doesn't know it's dry. Simply something completely different.

Quaffable delicious red wine!
Among the Primitivos, this one wins the price-performance ratio, whereby the performance, i.e. the taste, comes first. Absolutely recommendable wine with the typical berry/fruity notes. Quaffable!

Waiting for next year
The Zolla Primitivo has declined compared to previous years. The wine lacks a bit of character. Price/performance is therefore no longer what it used to be.
Very good fruity wine
The Primitivo wines are generally very good for my taste, but the Zolla is the crowning glory.
Very good wine at a good price

A Primitivo that should not be missing in our wine cellar
A Primitivo that should not be missing in our wine cellar, a fruity ripe wine, we like it
Very fruity and round wine
We had the wine with us on our ski vacation and could really enjoy it in the evening by the fireplace. It is deliciously fruity, we drank it every evening.
Simply a little dream under 10€?
Tastes differ! But I have already drunk really many red wines in different price ranges and have now remained loyal to the Zolla for a good 2 years. For me, a very delicious tasting wine. ??

Quick answers
How does the Zolla Primitivo di Manduria taste?
Full-bodied and warm, with velvety tannins and aromas of cherry and blackberry. The barrique aging adds caramel and roasted notes; the finish shows delicate cocoa nuances. Dry, 14% ABV.
What does this Primitivo pair best with?
Classically with lamb, game, and braised dishes – but also with pasta with a hearty ragout or Apulian Caciocavallo. The body of the wine handles intense seasoning and long-braised dishes well.
At what temperature do I serve the wine?
Best at 16–18 °C. Served too warm, it loses freshness and structure – so don't take it out of the warm living room just before pouring, but put it in a cooler place an hour before.
Is the Zolla Primitivo really dry?
Yes, it is dry. The ripe fruit and the fullness of the Primitivo can seem sweet, but there is no residual sugar behind it – that is the varietal-typical fruit intensity of the Apulian grape variety.
How do I store the wine after opening?
Well sealed and cool, it keeps for two to three days after opening. A vacuum seal slows down oxidation. The 750 ml bottle is sealed with a cork.
The Winery
Vigneti del Salento is an Italian winery located in the Apulia region. The prevailing climate facilitates the development of the grapes through temperature fluctuations between day and night and the proximity to the sea.
In addition, the grapes partially dry out due to the intense heat, which increases their sugar content. All grapes are harvested by hand and processed into wines under the supervision of the employed winemakers. Grape varieties such as Negroamaro, Montepulciano, Primitivo, and Merlot are grown at Vigneti del Salento.
