ANIMA DI PRIMITIVO - Primitivo di Manduria DOP

Explore the soul of the Primitivo grape with Cantina Sanpaolo's Anima di Primitivo, a true embodiment of tradition fused with modern innovation. This 100% Primitivo di Manduria DOP from the 2021 vintage showcases meticulous winemaking techniques designed to highlight the grape's inherent characteristics.

Vinified in stainless steel tanks for 15 days at a controlled temperature of 25°C, this method enhances the freshness and fruitiness of the Primitivo without the use of stems. Following vinification, the wine is aged for four months in French oak barriques, adding layers of complexity and elegance. It then rests in the bottle, allowing the flavors to harmonize and reach their peak expression.
