Sommelier recommends

“The nose is intense, with aromas of ripe plum, tobacco, liquorice, and thyme. On the palate, the wine is rich, full-bodied, and concentrated. The tannins are supple yet firm. The finish is exceptionally long.” — Ronalds Pētersons, Sommelier at Noble Wine

Cantine Polvanera Primitivo Gioia del Colle DOC “14” 2022 is a dry red wine produced from Primitivo grapes grown in the renowned Gioia del Colle area of Puglia, Italy. It is an organically produced wine that showcases the region's limestone-rich terroir and the freshness and elegance derived from its high-altitude vineyards. The wine displays a deep ruby-red colour and a powerful yet refined character.

In 2003, continuing his family's farming traditions, Filippo Cassano embarked on an ambitious project to popularize Primitivo grapes and other local varieties used in his native land to create excellent quality wines. To this end, he acquired and restored an old estate in the Marquesan region, near Gioia del Colle. The gardens surrounding the estate were home to the wonderful Primitivo vines, which were planted between 1860 and 1880. The word Polvanera in the winery's name indicates the typical dark color of the fields. A modern wine cellar with a masonry tasting room has been built next to the estate. In a cellar carved in limestone, the temperature and humidity of the air remain constant throughout the year, and the cellar itself goes underground in places to a depth of eight meters and serves as a quality mark for the excellent Polvanera products. It is here that Polvanera wines mature and develop before they become Primitivo Gioia del Colle DOC.

The nose reveals aromas of ripe blackberry, black cherry, plum, and violet. On the palate, the wine displays rich dark fruit flavours, complemented by notes of liquorice, cocoa, and warm spices. Well-structured tannins and vibrant acidity lead to a long, harmonious finish.

This wine pairs beautifully with grilled red meats, hearty pasta dishes, and aged cheeses. It is also an excellent match for traditional Puglian cuisine, such as orecchiette with tomato-based sauces or slow-braised lamb.
