Producer Puglia, Italy
La Masseria
La Masseria is made at a modern winery on the Salento peninsula in Puglia, the sun-baked heel of Italy, from organically grown Primitivo selected from the best parcels. The aim is a fresher, more polished take on a grape that can easily turn heavy in this heat.
The style is ripe and plummy but genuinely vibrant, with a touch of oak adding polish rather than weight. If you like generous, warming reds that still feel alive, this is a producer worth knowing.
