Primitivo Manduria Riserva is one of the wines that best embodies Masseria Ficarigna's commitment to enhancing the value of the Salento land. Its name is inspired by one of the most symbolic fruits of the region, namely the prickly pear, which originated in Mexico. The snake depicted on the label recalls an ancient Aztec legend according to which nomads from the north would stop their journey when they came across a prickly pear plant growing out of a crevice in a rock with an eagle feeding on a snake at the top. This is a 100% Primitivo wine, produced from grapes harvested by hand in the Manduria area. The grapes are gently pressed and fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. It is then aged in oak barrels for 12 months. In the glass, it has a ruby red colour with intense garnet reflections. The nose opens with aromas of ripe red fruit and plum jam, with clear spicy hints of vanilla and balsamic. The palate is dry, warm and supple, with a pleasantly toasted finish.
