ALL OUR GRAPES HAVE CERTIFIED ORGANIC STATUS
Our Cantiniere Primitivo is a red wine grape and is the third-most planted grape in Puglia, Southern Italy. This Cantiniere is an elegant ruby red with spicy notes.
Aromas of cinnamon, raspberry and fruit punch with smoky notes.
Taste: Velvety, supple tannins, flexible and friendly. Strong, but not mouth-drying at all! Hints of plum,blackberry and black cherries, brown sugar, and baking spice. A nice, long finish. A good structure and characterized by soft and ripe tannins.
Our labels have a personal meaning but all reflect either a story, the history of Italy or the grape.
HOW WE NAMED IT - Cantiniere Primitivo: The name ‘Cantiniere’ originates from the Italian ‘Cantina’ meaning cellar. The Italians called those who worked in the cellars a ‘Cantiniere’. Their role was to keep the wine barrels/bottles clean, remove the rodents and insects and turn the wines. They were usually paid in wine! Our Cantiniere Primitivo is in honour of this important, traditional role within a winery – to the Cantinieres around the world – salute!

- Our Terre Di San Vito wines can be opened as if there were no wax at all. Simply insert the corkscrew straight through the wax and pull out the cork normally
- On a hot day, our red wine can be served slightly chilled. Best chilled for 20 minutes before serving to enhance the flavour.
