This Primitivo comes from the Agricoltori del Chianti Geografico company. Originally a cooperative founded in 1961, it is now owned by the Piccini family. This family still values the traditions of its founders, focusing on enjoyable wines characteristic of the region. At this winery, each vineyard is carefully evaluated and individually assessed. This results in recommendations on which grape varieties best suit the vineyard. They then contribute to the planting and vineyard management, resulting in top-quality wines.
The beautiful vineyards of Geografico in Italy clearly demonstrate that Italy breathes wine. The Primitivo grapes are planted in clay soil, giving them a unique character. The grapes are carefully harvested with quality as the top priority. They are then transported to the winery where a rigorous selection process takes place. Because, simply put, only the best of the best is good enough. Fermentation then takes place at a controlled temperature. Finally, the wine is aged for several months in oak barrels. After a while, we can enjoy this magnificent red wine.
A high-quality Primitivo with a ruby-red color in the glass. The nose offers a seductive aroma of red fruit, black cherries, sweet spices, and a light smokiness thanks to the oak aging. The palate is sultry and rounded with characteristically ripe tannins. A beautifully flavorful red wine that pairs beautifully with roast meats, game stews, and meat sauces.
