Description

Allow me to introduce you to the captivating Doppio Passo Primitivo, a wine that embodies the sun-drenched warmth and rich heritage of Puglia, Italy. This isn't just another bottle on the shelf; it's an invitation to experience the 'double step' winemaking technique, a process that concentrates the grapes' flavors and imbues the wine with an unparalleled depth and complexity. The Doppio Passo method involves allowing some of the grapes to partially dry on the vine, concentrating their sugars and flavors before a second fermentation with fresh grapes. This meticulous process results in a wine with a captivating intensity and smooth texture. It's a testament to the artistry and dedication of the winemakers who strive to capture the true essence of the Primitivo grape.

From the moment you pour a glass, you'll be entranced by its deep ruby hue, hinting at the opulent flavors that await. The nose is a symphony of ripe dark fruits – think juicy blackberries, succulent plums, and a touch of sweet cherry – intertwined with subtle notes of spice, like cinnamon and clove, and a whisper of Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, the Doppio Passo Primitivo unveils its full-bodied character, with velvety tannins that caress your tongue and a lingering finish that leaves you wanting more. It’s intensely fruity, but not overly sweet, with a dryness that perfectly complements its rich flavors.

This is a wine that's incredibly versatile and food-friendly. Its robust structure and balanced acidity make it an ideal partner for a wide range of dishes. Imagine savoring it alongside a hearty plate of pasta with a rich tomato-based sauce, a succulent grilled steak, or a slow-cooked lamb ragu. It's also a wonderful accompaniment to aged cheeses and charcuterie boards, its complexity complementing the savory flavors of the cured meats and cheeses. For a vegetarian option, try pairing it with roasted vegetables or a hearty lentil stew. The wine’s earthy undertones will enhance the flavors of the vegetables, while its tannins will cut through the richness of the stew.

Doppio Passo Primitivo is more than just a wine; it's an experience. It's a taste of Puglia, a region known for its beautiful landscapes, warm hospitality, and, of course, its exceptional wines. So, uncork a bottle, gather your friends and family, and let the Doppio Passo Primitivo transport you to the sun-kissed vineyards of southern Italy. It's a wine that's sure to impress, a wine that tells a story, a wine that you'll want to share again and again. The optimal drinking temperature is around 16°C.
