Oro di Eméra
Primitivo from old sapling-trained vines. Gold like the sand at sunset and like the wealth that this greatest representative of Salento viticulture gives to its people. Long macerations for an unforgettable wine.
TENUTE EMÉRA - Lizzano (TA) • APULIA
An ancient farmhouse and a modern subterranean cellar, with sustainable architecture. A few km away, an aristocratic hunting lodge surrounded by vineyards that run towards the nearby coast, raised between the two seas, where once the land was completely submerged. Essential soil, composed of sand, clay and silt, forms a good nutrient base and provides excellent drainage, while the sea breeze refreshes the vineyards during the night, after the sultry summer days.

YIELD PER HECTARE: 60 Q / HA
6 months in steel, 12 months in barrique
Primitivo is the autochthonous red berried variety among the most cultivated in Puglia, with early ripening, as the name suggests. From its grapes, sweet and tasty, with skin and fine tannins, with a naturally high alcohol content, intense color and important structure, comes our intense and powerful wine of excellent finesse. The harvest took place manually between the first and second ten days of September, in the coolest hours of the morning to protect the grapes from the heat.

Tasting notes and pairings
Ruby color with purplish edge, compact. On the nose, small ripe red berries, with floral nuances of violet and dog rose. The sip is vigorous, warm and pulpy. Present and well managed tannic texture, with a nuance of sweet spice on the finish. Ideal for savory first courses, red meats, even long-cooked ones, aged cheeses. The perfect match: roast veal with bay leaf.
