Surani Dionysos Primitivo di Manduria Riserva DOC

Tasting Note
Deep ruby red in color with purple shades, it has a bouquet rich in black fruits such as bluberries, black cherries and plums, as well as attractive spicy notes of pepper, chocolate and sweet cinnamon. On the palate it is complex and full-bodied, but with elegant, velvety tannins; the finish is tangy and very long.

Origin
From the vineyards of Masseria Surani, in the Salento Peninsula. The vines are Guyot-trained and organically grown; the soils are limestone-based and are rich in iron. Naturally very low yields with manual harvesting.
