Founded in 1930 the Cooperative Cantina of Locorontondo was the first to be formed in Apuglia and is today recognised as one of the finest. With over 1300 members the Cantina works hand in hand with them to ensure the high quality of grapes that arrive in the cellars. This IGT wine is a blend of Negro Amaro and Primitivo grown in clay / limestone soils. The grapes first undergo a cold maceration to obtain intense fruit character and deep colour before fermentation and ageing the latter done in old Slovenian oak botti and stainless tanks. It has great depth of colour with intense ripe fruit aromas and a touch of spice above. On the palate it is full bodied deeply flavoured and packed with ripe tannins.
