The Primitivo Salento IGP "Dodecapolis" from the Vigne di Luca Attanasio represents an authentic and profound expression of the Primitivo varietal, cultivated in the pulsating heart of Salento. This wine is a tribute to the richness and diversity of the Apulian terroir, known for its ability to produce intensely flavorful and characterful red wines.
On the nose, the "Dodecapolis" Primitivo offers a complex and enveloping bouquet, where intertwined notes of ripe red fruits such as plums and cherries meld with nuances of sweet spices, vanilla, and a light touch of tobacco. This aromatic complexity is the result of meticulous vinification followed by an adequate period of aging in wood, which helps to harmonize the various elements and develop a rich and enduring olfactory profile.
On the palate, the wine reveals itself to be powerful yet balanced, with a soft entry that transitions into a well-defined tannic structure. The acidity is well-balanced, supporting a palate of flavors that mirrors the nose, with additions of dark chocolate and a hint of black pepper that adds liveliness to the mix. The finish is long and pleasantly lingering, leaving a memorable impression of macerated fruit and sweet spices.
Ideal as a pairing with robust dishes like roasted meats, game-based dishes, or aged cheeses, the Primitivo Salento IGP "Dodecapolis" is a wine that manages to connect those who taste it with the truest essence of the Salento territory. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of around 18°C to enhance all its qualities.
