More questions
Primitivo DOP Gioia del Colle Marpione Riserva from Tenuta Viglione, offered in magnum format, naturally expresses the grape's intense character. Of deep ruby color, it presents aromas of ripe red fruit and spicy notes, complemented by hints of dried flowers and balsamic nuances. On the palate it is full and enveloping, with a present yet well-defined tannic structure and a balance between freshness and warmth that supports the drinking. The finish is pleasant, with fruity and spicy echoes.
It is recommended to serve slightly cooler than room temperature and, if desired, to decant briefly for a rounder opening. It pairs with grilled meats, flavorful stews, tomato-based dishes and aged cheeses with firm structure. The magnum format makes it ideal for convivial dinners or for those seeking a bottle capable of accompanying a plentiful meal, offering generous portions and a notable presence.
