History and Winemaking

Armentino is obtained from an equal mix of Primitivo and Negroamaro. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected in the cellar. Vinification is carried out at a controlled temperature. The wine is then blended and allowed to age for **a few months in stainless steel** and subsequently for **5 months in the bottle**. This process is designed to enhance the **power of Negroamaro** and the **softness of Primitivo**, creating a wine that is “perfect because the right is always in the middle.”
