The Primitivo di Manduria Reserve "Anniversario 62" is a solid and concentrated red wine, matured for 18 months in small French and American barrels. The wide and intense bouquet consists of jammy berries, cherries, and sweet spices. The sip is full-bodied, soft, and textured, supported by noble tannins.

The Primitivo di Manduria Riserva “Anniversario 62” Cantine San Marzano is a full-bodied and enveloping red wine, born from a very lively and representative Apulian winery. The vineyards of Cantine San Marzano are located on soils made up of residual red earth, rich in iron oxides, with a limestone substrate and sparse rocky outcrops. The high thermal values, low rainfall, and significant temperature variations determine the high quality of the grapes.

The grapes that give rise to the Primitivo di Manduria DOP Riserva “Anniversario 62” are hand-harvested in the second half of September, in a state of advanced ripeness. The grapes are destemmed and crushed and left to macerate cold for 24-48 hours. This is followed by temperature-controlled maceration and alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts for about 10 days. The aging of 18 months in barrique softens the wine and gives it great structure, making it long-lived.

deep and an organoleptic variety that includes hints of plums, cherry jam, notes of tobacco and spices against a pleasantly fruity background. On the palate, it is warm, soft, rich in noble tannins, with a long finish that offers notes of cocoa, coffee, and vanilla. “Anniversario 62” by Cantine San Marzano is a fine red wine to pair with meats and game but also surprising as a meditation wine, for unforgettable sensations.
