PRIMITIVO 'SE' GIANFRANCO FINO 2021 DESCRIPTION

Gianfranco Fino's Primitivo "Se" is the more youthful and fruity version of this historical grape variety originating on the Balkan side of the Adriatic, which has been cultivated for centuries with excellent results in the land of Puglia as well. Thanks to a warm, Mediterranean climate, Manduria and Sava have become the areas of choice for the vine, which ripens grapes of exceptional richness and aromatic intensity. The label is a perfect introduction to the world of this world-famous Apulian winemaker. It is a red that allows you to appreciate the fruity richness, spicy nuances and softness of a suave and enveloping sip.

"Se" is one of the versions of Primitivo proposed by one of the most famous realities of the Apulian wine scene. Despite the fact that his winery was only established in 2004, Gianfranco Fino has been able to put himself in the spotlight thanks to careful and meticulous work, which has always focused on the tradition of the territory and absolute quality. His estate is made up of particularly well-suited plots, carefully chosen over the years to rely on a wealth of old vines of high value. The Primitivo vineyards are located in the flat area of the Manduria countryside, at an altitude of about 90 meters above sea level, on clay and limestone soils. The vines are bush-trained, and the harvest is done manually with a rigorous selection of the bunches and subsequent selection of the grapes on the sorting table before vinification. After destemming, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks with a two- to three-week maceration on the skins. The wine matures in wooden barrels for 9 months and is bottled without clarification, so but maintains its natural integrity.

Gianfranco Fino's Primitivo red "Se" gives the pleasure of savouring the sunny charm of a generous land and its princely vine. The perfect synthesis of a magnificent Mediterranean terroir, it is a red that conquers by elegance and intensity, fragrance and depth. Dark ruby red in colour, it reveals all its richness on the nose with aromas reminiscent of blackberry, ripe cherry, small berries, black cherry, notes of Mediterranean maquis herbs and sweet spices. Harmonious and ample, it presents itself on the palate with a velvety tannic texture that is well integrated into a ripe and very expressive fruit, accompanying a persistent and balanced finish.
