San Marzano Primitivo Sessantanni is a beautiful red wine gem from Cantine San Marzano in Puglia. Marzano is a small village in the centre of the Primitivo di Manduria DOC region, a strip of land kissed by the two seas of the Salento: the Ionian and the Adriatic. In 1962 the DOC appellation did not yet exist, and the Primitivo di Manduria was far from becoming a cult wine for wine lovers. Even so, 19 winemakers came together to follow a dream and founded Cantine San Marzano.
Very intense and elegant ruby red color, ample and complex fruity fragrance with hints of plum, cherry jam and tobacco, slightly spicy. A full-bodied wine, soft and rich in tannins, with a finish that offers notes of cocoa, coffee and vanilla. Aged in French and American oak barriques for 12 months.
Enjoy San Marzano Primitivo Sessantanni with steak, lamb chops, BBQ ribs, grilled vegetables and aged cheeses.
