Red wine | Puglia
The I Tratturi Primitivo Puglia IGP Notte Rossa is a celebration of the sun-drenched vineyards of Puglia, Italy. This is a wine that encapsulates the rich history and traditions of the region, where the 'tratturi' – ancient paths used for centuries by shepherds and their flocks – weave through the landscape, connecting people and places. The Notte Rossa Primitivo is a tribute to this heritage, a wine crafted with passion and respect for the land.
Crafted from 100% Primitivo grapes, this wine offers a bold and expressive character that is both approachable and memorable. The deep ruby-red color hints at the intensity to come, while the aromas leap from the glass, filling your senses with notes of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, intertwined with subtle hints of spice and vanilla. These fruits are grown from the wineries’ vineyards which are full of stone and earth, diaries of wine stories.
On the palate, the Notte Rossa Primitivo delivers a velvety texture and a harmonious balance of flavors. The juicy fruit notes are complemented by soft tannins and a pleasant acidity, leading to a long, satisfying finish. This is a wine that is both powerful and elegant, showcasing the best of what Puglia has to offer.
This Primitivo is incredibly versatile and pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Its rich fruit flavors and smooth tannins make it an excellent companion to grilled meats, such as lamb chops or beef steaks. It also complements hearty pasta dishes, especially those with tomato-based sauces or ragu. For cheese lovers, it pairs well with aged cheeses like Pecorino or Parmesan. If you're feeling adventurous, try it with spicy dishes like Indian curries or Mexican enchiladas. This wine really is a fit to every dish.
This wine should be served at a temperature of 16°C to fully appreciate its aromas and flavors. It also helps if the wine has a 15 minutes resting time. It's perfect for enjoying on its own, shared with friends and family, or as a special treat during a romantic dinner. A wine that makes a long lasting impression.
The Winery “I Tratturi” and the beautiful region Puglia ensures the highest quality and an unique, tasteful experience that takes you on a journey through the vineyards of Italy.
