Description
Borgo Del Mandorlo Primitivo Di Manduria DOC
Borgo del Mandorlo is a tribute to Puglia and to its history. In the Roman times, Pliny the Old owned the wonderful and special marvels of the lands now in the provinces of Taranto and Lecce; one of these places can be visited and has his name: the Plinian source. It’s a large natural cave where light enters through a small space. The entrance has a circular wall of sandstone. The really marvellous thing is that an almond tree has grown there. It is a tree loved by the Apulian inhabitants and we have drawn our inspiration for ther name of our Apulian wines. Enchanting wines, full bodied and intense that will delight you sip after sip.
VINIFICATION:
Destemmed and soft pressed grapes are vinified by using the traditional “submerged cap” system, carefully controlled in order to extract delicate tannins and varietal fruit characteristics. Fermentation and macerations last 12/15 days at a controlled temperature not exceeding 28°C. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation are completed.
CLIMATE:
The climate is warm and temperate, with significant rainfall all year round. During the summer the African winds cause rapid and marked rise of the thermometer and high temperature variation.
