Grape: 100% Primitivo

Ripasso style wine: Grapes are harvested at normal ripeness and vinified traditionally. They are pressed and fermented for 15 days under temperature control. A portion of the harvest is left to dry on the vines for an additional 3-4 weeks. After harvest these sweet, ultra ripe grapes are vinified traditionally. When fermentation is complete, the finished wine from the first harvest is re-passed over the pomace from the second. This starts another round of fermentation in the first wine which increases the alcoholic content and gives it deeper color and more complex aromas.
