Santufili

2003 Salento - Indicazione Geografica Tipica 100% Primitivo

The Mocavero Santufili is a captivating example of a full-bodied red wine that showcases the rich character of Primitivo. Originating from the Salento region, this 2003 vintage exhibits a deep ruby hue that hints at its intense flavor profile. With its high acidity, the wine offers a refreshing lift, balancing its otherwise generous fruit intensity that reveals layers of ripe blackberries, plums, and dark cherries, complemented by subtle notes of spice and vanilla. The tannins are notably firm, providing structure and depth, while the wine maintains a dry finish that invites another sip. This delightful expression of Primitivo embodies the warmth and vibrancy of its terroir, making it a wonderful choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.
