Primitivo IGT - Imprint of Mark Shannon - Cantina A Mano 2022

The Primitivo IGT "Imprint" by Mark Shannon is an excellent example of A Mano Winery's ability to blend tradition and innovation. This red wine is produced in the renowned region of Puglia, where the Mediterranean climate and clay soils are ideal for cultivating the Primitivo grape variety.

The winemaking follows traditional methods but with a modern twist that reflects the unique vision of winemaker Mark Shannon. The result is a deeply red, almost violet-hued wine, reflecting the intensity and passion that characterize this product.

On the nose, the Primitivo IGT "Imprint" opens with a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as sour cherries and plums, enriched by subtle spicy notes and a hint of vanilla, thanks to aging in barriques. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with a perfect balance between the natural sweetness of mature tannins and a lively acidity that provides freshness and longevity. The finish is persistent and leaves a pleasant aftertaste of fruit and spices.

Ideal for pairing with robust dishes such as meat stews, roasts, and aged cheeses, the Primitivo IGT "Imprint" is also surprisingly versatile, being appreciable with slightly spicier or ethnic dishes that enhance its characteristics without overwhelming them.

An authentic expression of the Puglian terroir, this wine is a tribute to Mark Shannon's love for Italian viticulture and his dedication to creating high-quality wines that speak of their origin. It will be a distinguished and appreciated addition to the cellar of any enthusiast of Italian wines.
