The 2022 San Marzano il Pumo Primitivo Puglia IGP is a prime example of the superior quality wines produced in Puglia, Italy. This vintage showcases the exceptional winemaking skills of San Marzano, a renowned producer in the region. Upon pouring, the deep garnet colour of this wine immediately captivates the eye. On the nose, rich aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries mingle with a subtle hint of vanilla and spice. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with a smooth and balanced structure. Notes of dark fruits, chocolate, and toasted oak dance on the tongue, leading to a long and satisfying finish. This Primitivo is a perfect companion for hearty Italian dishes, from slow-cooked meats to aged cheeses. Enjoy now or cellar for a few years to experience the full potential of this exceptional wine.

Dark fruit, blackberry, chocolate, black cherry. Velvety finish that is lovely and moreish. Very easy drinking, sweet but not too sweet, light but good flavour and legs, fruity but also some raisins and nuts.

Rich and mature fruit, with soft oak hints. A muscularwine, unique for complexity and harmony. Great match with flavourful first meals or red meats.

Light fresh Italian chardonnay, with peach and stone fruit. The grapes are destemmed, and left in maceration for a few hours. The next phase is the gentle pressing of the marc, resulting in a static cold decanting so that it happens naturally. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at 12 °C, with maturation mainly in tank. San 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. Even so, 19 winemakers came together to follow a dream and founded Cantine San Marzano. However, it wasn't until 1996 and the introduction of a new bottling plant that San Marzano wines could move from commodity to brand. With the growth of the brand and company, San Marzano set themselves a goal: 'To make a wine just like the one our fathers did and make it original and contemporary.' This was to be the Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria DOP, one of the iconic labels of the company, and one which embodies the essence of the San Marzano philosophy. Today the collective continues to flourish with the aquisition of new vineyards and opportunities to explore.

NOTTE ROSSA is the expression of our unique terroir. Important and modern wines: the great wines from Salento, which interpret the values of traditional viticulture with a modern oenological approach.
