The Carrubo Primitivo di Manduria DOC in magnum format from Tormaresca is a characterful red wine with a warm, encompassing presence. It shows an intense ruby color and on the nose offers aromas of ripe red fruit, plum and cherry, accompanied by subtle spice notes and a hint of dried flowers. On the palate it is full and rounded, with polished tannins and a balance that favors freshness, delivering a pleasant persistence without excess.

The magnum version highlights the wine’s ability to evolve slowly in bottle and suits meat dishes, roasts, hard cheeses and flavorful home-style preparations. Serve at about 16–18 °C and consider opening the bottle a few minutes before serving to allow aromatic expression. Producer: Tormaresca; format: magnum, ideal for sharing or for those seeking a table wine with presence.
