San Marzano Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria Vintage 2020

San Marzano Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria 2020 is a striking example of one of Puglia’s most celebrated red wines, made from old Primitivo vines with remarkable concentration and depth. Sourced from vineyards over 60 years old, it captures the character of the Manduria terroir and the winery’s long viticultural heritage in a single, powerful bottle.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine is typically deep ruby to almost opaque, reflecting the richness of the old-vine fruit. The nose is generous and layered, with ripe dark berries, plum, cherry compote, and hints of spice, cocoa, and warm Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with ripe fruit, supple tannins, and a broad, warming finish that feels both generous and polished. Its structure and concentration suggest good aging potential, though it is also highly enjoyable in its youth for those who appreciate a bold, expressive style.

Production
San Marzano’s vineyards in Puglia benefit from a warm Mediterranean climate, with old vines rooted in soils that help concentrate flavor and preserve the distinctive identity of Primitivo di Manduria. The fruit comes from venerable parcels over sixty years old, many of them carrying centuries-old clones that represent the area’s viticultural legacy. Careful harvesting and vinification are used to preserve this heritage and translate the old-vine character into a wine of intensity, balance, and terroir-driven personality.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with rich, flavorful dishes such as grilled red meats, braised lamb, aged cheeses, and hearty pasta with meat sauce. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended to allow the wine to open fully and show its depth and complexity.
