Additional information

The vines for this wine are found in vineyards located 100 to 150 meters above sea level. The sea breeze brings cool air into the vineyard, effectively compensating for the daytime heat. After a careful harvest and selection, the grapes are picked and pressed. The skins remain in contact with the must and its yeasts for 20 days at a controlled temperature of around 25 degrees. Finally, this Ruminat Primitivo rests in stainless steel tanks, followed by bottle aging.
