Masseria Ficarigna
This Salento Primitivo from Masseria Ficarigna is an example of the qualitative excellence produced in the Salento region, of which the cellar is an ambassador.

In the glass it has a deep ruby red color with purplish nuances. The nose recalls toasted and coffee sensations that form the background for hints of red berry fruit. On the palate it shows warmth and a round, enveloping and balanced taste.

Masseria Ficarigna
This Salento Negroamaro is produced from one of the most representative native vines of the Salento peninsula, of which Masseria Ficarigna is the spokesperson. Inspired by the symbolic prickly pear fruit, the label features a stylized image of a "pica", the Salento magpie, among the birds that contribute to the dispersion of seeds and the spread of this plant in the region.
The grapes are carefully picked by the cellar team and immediately transported to the cellar where a soft pressing and fermentation with maceration in steel for 15 days take place. The wine finishes its refinement with a passage in barriques for 8-10 months.
It is a red wine with a ruby hue. The nose is deep and orchestrated on rich red berried fruit notes. In the mouth it is intense, soft and balanced.
Excellent to combine with first courses of Mediterranean cuisine, as well as cured meats and medium-aged cheeses.

La Bollina
We can't get enough of the primitive that Bollina produces in Italy. This one has an insane 98 points from Luca Maroni and comes from Manduria, a small region in the heel of the boot known for variety. The fruit is harvested by hand and made a little late to increase concentration, potency and wealth. There's blackberry, cherry and plum with a backbone of tobacco, mocha and cocoa. This is not wine for the faint of heart, but rather for those who want something thick and dark in their glass.
