The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

The Lunaria Ancestrale Primitivo, from the fertile hills of Terre di Chieti, sublimely illustrates the rich history and character of the Primitivo grape variety. This biodynamic and organic wine exudes a deep connection to its land of origin. The bouquet is a luxurious blend of dark cherries, ripe plums, and blackberries, enriched with elegant floral notes of violets and a surprisingly fresh hint of blood orange. This aromatic composition, created by spontaneous fermentation and the absence of added sulfites, celebrates the natural richness and diversity of its environment. The careful production method of this wine—without filtration and with natural stabilization—ensures it offers a true representation of its terroir. The clay and limestone soil, combined with the traditional Abruzzo grape growing method, gives this wine an unmistakable mineral undertone that harmonizes perfectly with the complex fruit aromas. Every sip of Lunaria Ancestrale Primitivo invites you to explore the rich history and artisanal winemaking practices of the Lunaria Orsogna winery.

The Lunaria Ancestrale Primitivo offers a tasting experience that is both powerful and refined. The first impression is one of a full-bodied and juicy wine, with beautifully integrated tannins, creating a velvety texture that is both rich and accessible. The palate deepens further with notes of ripe plums and figs, while wild herbs and a subtle citrus freshness provide exciting variety and complexity. This Primitivo exemplifies how spontaneous fermentation, without artificial intervention, can give wine an authentic expression of the grape variety and vintage. The absence of filtered clarity contributes to the wine's complexity and evolutionary nature, making each bottle unique. The natural yeast populations and the region's cool winters help naturally stabilize the wine, resulting in a lasting and vibrant tasting experience that continues to develop, both in the bottle and in the glass.

The Lunaria Ancestrale Primitivo is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with a wide variety of dishes. From robust pasta and spicy meat dishes to soft cheeses and rustic pizzas, this wine complements and enriches any meal. Its ripe fruit notes and soft tannins make it ideal for both white and red meats, while its fresh citrus and herbal undertones make it a surprising partner for lighter, more aromatic dishes. This Primitivo is not only a testament to Lunaria Orsogna's biodiversity and ecological philosophy, but also an invitation to explore the deeper connection between wine, food, and nature. It's a wine that opens conversations, awakens the senses, and embodies the essence of Italian hospitality and culinary delight. For the true wine lover and gastronomic adventurer, Lunaria Ancestrale Primitivo offers an unforgettable experience that will leave you wanting more.
