Zolla Primitivo-Merlot IGP

After destemming and gentle pressing of the grapes, the must is fermented with the mash at a controlled temperature for 8-10 days, with regular pumping over of the mash. Malolactic fermentation takes place in steel tanks before the racking from the lees occurs. The young wine is stored for another 6-8 months in used barrels of American and French oak before it is bottled.

In the glass, the Primitivo-Merlot possesses a very intense ruby red color. Its rich aroma of ripe red fruits, cherries, berries, with notes of cinnamon, make it a wonderful companion to aged cheese and in a cozy gathering.

The Winery

Vigneti del Salento

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.
