Produttori Vini Manduria
(Cave à Primitivo di Manduria)
À propos du vignoble et des vins
The history of the winery began in 1928 and is indissolubly linked to that of the territory's main product, Primitivo di Manduria, a wine that was first undervalued and considered "improving", i.e. destined to strengthen French and northern Italian wines, then humiliated during the dark years of methanol and finally revived in the mid-1990s when it was decided to focus on quality and the added value of the bottle. And so, today, it has been possible to circumscribe the production base, ensuring that healthy grapes with superior organoleptic qualities are produced every year.
Aujourd'hui, la Cantina Produttori di Manduria possède 1000 hectares de vignobles, dont plus de la moitié sont consacrés à la production de Primitivo. Les vignerons accordent également une grande attention à un autre cépage historique originaire du Salento : Negroamaro, dont les raisins occupent 25 % de la production. La production de Merlot, Cabernet et Malvasia est moins importante, mais seulement en termes quantitatifs, compte tenu de l'attention maniaque que les membres consacrent aux vignobles.
