The vineyards are located about 120 meters above sea level, on calcareous and red soils, in a climatic context marked by hot summers and good temperature excursions between day and night. These conditions favor a complete ripening of the grapes and a natural concentration of the fruit, without losing freshness and aromatic definition. The 2019 vintage, regular and dry, contributed to a rich yet orderly profile, with excellent varietal expressiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCARRUBO 2019 Primitivo di Manduria DOC Tormaresca\u003c\/strong\u003e presents itself with an intense ruby red color, enriched by violet reflections.
