The Primitivo Salento IGP "12 e mezzo" Jeroboam from Cantina Varvaglione is a red wine that captures the essence of Salento. Made with selected Primitivo grapes, this wine is renowned for its aromatic richness and robust structure. The name "12 e mezzo" indicates the wine's moderately low alcohol content, which makes it pleasantly balanced.

Known for its innovative winemaking techniques, Cantina Varvaglione has meticulously crafted this Primitivo at every stage of production. With a deep ruby red color, it presents intense notes of ripe red fruits on the nose, such as plum and cherry, enriched with hints of sweet spices and a slight touch of vanilla, resulting from wood aging.

On the palate, the Primitivo "12 e mezzo" unveils a full-bodied structure with soft tannins and an aromatic persistence that leaves a lasting impression. It pairs wonderfully with robust dishes such as roasts, grilled meats, and aged cheeses.

The Jeroboam format presentation makes it ideal for special occasions, offering not only an excellent tasting experience but also a touch of elegance to the table.
