Primitivo 'Bizona' Tenuta Macchiarola Italian wine - Salento IGT from Puglia

Tasting Notes

This distinctive wine from Puglia embodies traditional Italian winemaking heritage. At 11.5% alcohol, it stays light on its feet without sacrificing character. Crafted from Primitivo 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards on the red terrains rich in sand, clay and limestone from early harvest. Vinification: spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, no filtrations. The wine is aged some months in steel tanks. A wine reflecting Puglia's tradition of generous, full-bodied reds.
