Descrizione

The Primitivo Salento IGT of Torre Del Cardo, belonging to the Linea Evoluzione of Funiati Artigiani Viticoltori, strongly and deeply embodies the essence of Southern Italy. Cultivated in the sunny soils of Salento, this wine expresses itself through the Primitivo grape variety, a symbol of character and Mediterranean warmth. Careful aging enhances its typical notes, where intense aromas of ripe red fruit, such as cherries and plums, emerge, wrapped in delicate spices and light hints of licorice.

On the palate, the Primitivo is full-bodied and round, with well-balanced tannins and a persistent finish, capable of accompanying tasty dishes such as roasted meats, aged cheeses, and traditional Apulian cuisine. This wine tells the story of Funiati's patience and artisanal passion, turning every sip into a sensory journey into the beating heart of Salento.

Winery history

A family-run winery that showcases the indigenous grapes of Salento. On its official website it states that operations began in 2020 and describes multiple generations involved in viticulture; however, some external listings report different years. To avoid discrepancies, the 'foundation_year' field remains null and chronological information should be verified directly from the listed sources.

Production philosophy

Territorial, artisanal production: exclusively vinified from estate-grown grapes, hand-harvested and subject to meticulous control of cellar processes to capture in the bottle the sense of place and the expressiveness of indigenous varieties.

Terroir and vineyards

Located in San Pancrazio Salentino, in the Salento area and close to the Salice Salentino appellation. Vineyards are situated a short distance from the sea on predominantly deep, clay soils, with diurnal temperature variations that contribute to the freshness of the grapes.
