Primitivo Rosato PAOLOLEO

This rosé wine from the Paololeo winery in Puglia is made exclusively from Primitivo grapes. Primitivo is a native grape variety that ripens earlier than other varieties: the grapes used to produce this Puglia wine come from the Manduria and Sava areas near Taranto. Once harvested manually during the last ten days of August, the grapes are crushed and cold macerated for about 5-6 hours. This is followed by pressing and fermentation at a controlled temperature of 15-16°C. The final stage of ageing takes place in steel for about 3 months.
