About
“Fanova” 2023 is a vibrant and authentic expression of Primitivo from the historic Gioia del Colle DOC in Puglia. Unlike the richer coastal styles, Primitivo from Gioia del Colle is known for its altitude-grown freshness, limestone-driven minerality, and refined structure. The 2023 vintage beautifully balances Mediterranean warmth with elegance and precision, offering depth without heaviness.
Tasting notes
Deep ruby red with violet reflections. Aromas of ripe black cherry, plum, wild berries, and hints of Mediterranean herbs and sweet spice. On the palate, it is smooth and well-structured, with balanced acidity, supple tannins, and notes of dark fruit, cocoa, and a subtle mineral edge. The finish is warm, persistent, and harmonious.
Pairing
Ideal with grilled meats, lamb, pasta with rich tomato sauces, aged cheeses, or traditional Italian dishes such as orecchiette with ragù. Its balance of fruit and structure makes it versatile and food-friendly.

Primitivo
Primitivo is a dark-skinned grape famous for producing dark, bold, tannic wines, with very intensive jammy bouquet with spice hints. Primitivo styles ranges from medium to full-body with slightly sweet aftertaste.
This wonderful land is rich with olive trees and wine. However for a long time the Puglia region wines had a notoriety of being "flat" and highly alcoholic. Local winemakers were able to overcome this situation as the wine and become more diverse.
