History and Winemaking

Primitivo grapes are harvested in the first ten days of September. Maceration and fermentation take place in temperature-controlled steel silos. The key maturation occurs for **6 months in second and third-use French oak barriques**. This wood aging softens the wine and adds complexity. Subsequently, it ages for an additional **6 months in the bottle**.
