"Il Miglione," a pure Primitivo di Gioia from the historic Miglionica district, known for its ideal vine cultivation, offers an intense purplish-red hue. On the nose, it reveals the characteristic aromas of the grape—ripe fruit and cherry jam. The palate experiences a full and enveloping taste, with good persistence and excellent aging potential.
The vines, aged 40 years, thrive in a soil rich in skeletal content, allowing the roots to stay cool and reach deep for nutrients during the warm Puglian summers. Hand-harvested, the grapes undergo temperature-controlled maceration and guided malolactic fermentation. Following racking, the wine matures in steel tanks for eight months and spends an additional six months in horizontally stored bottles before hitting the market.
With an alcohol content of 15% Vol., this I.G.P. Puglia Primitivo epitomizes the region's winemaking tradition. "Il Miglione" captures the essence of Puglia, offering a wine that pairs beautifully with robust dishes, enhancing the culinary experience with each glass. Experience one of the best Puglia wines, where quality and tradition blend seamlessly.
