Deep garnet. Powerful nose of black cherry, fig jam, dark chocolate and pipe tobacco over hints of vanilla, leather and Mediterranean herbs. Full-bodied with velvety tannins, ripe acidity and a long, warming finish. A magnum built for slow-roasted lamb, ribeye, aged pecorino, or a Sunday gathering — gives several glasses of the same generous, plush red wine that San Marzano’s old vines do so well.
2020 Vintage — Primitivo di Manduria Riserva DOC, Puglia, Italy — 1.5L Magnum
Cantine San Marzano’s flagship Riserva, made from the oldest Primitivo vines on the Sessantanni plot (60+ years old). Hand-harvested in late September from old bush vines on the calcareous red soils of Puglia’s heel, fermented in small concrete and stainless steel, then aged 12+ months in second- and third-fill French oak followed by a year in bottle. Magnum format intensifies the experience — slower evolution and a more sumptuous presence on the table.
