Villa Mottura Primitivo di Manduria 2023

Villa Mottura Primitivo di Manduria 2023 is a bold southern Italian red that captures the warmth, richness, and character of Puglia in every glass. Produced by the historic Mottura estate, it combines the generous style Primitivo is known for with the finesse and tradition of one of the region’s most respected wineries.

Tasting Notes
Expect a deep ruby to garnet color with plenty of concentration in the glass. The nose is typically expressive and ripe, with notes of dark cherry, plum, blackberry, warm spice, and a subtle touch of oak from its time in barrel. On the palate, it is likely full-bodied and smooth, with juicy dark fruit, soft tannins, and a rounded, lingering finish. Primitivo di Manduria is known for its rich, sun-ripened style, and this 2023 vintage should offer good immediate drinkability while also having enough structure to develop well over the next few years.

Production
Made in Manduria, in the heart of Puglia’s sun-drenched south, this wine reflects the region’s warm Mediterranean climate and distinctive terroir. Mottura’s approach emphasizes slow maturation in oak barriques and tonneaux at the family estate in Tuglie, allowing the wine to build complexity while preserving the character of the land.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for grilled meats, roasted lamb, aged cheeses, rich pasta dishes, and flavorful Mediterranean cuisine. Serve at around 16-18°C, and consider decanting for 30-60 minutes if you want to soften the texture and open up the aromatics.

Producer
Mottura Winery has been rooted in Tuglie, Salento since the late 19th century and remains a family-run estate with nearly 100 years of history passed down through four generations. Today, Mottura is regarded as one of Puglia’s leading wineries, known for its commitment to quality, tradition, and the production of fine wines that represent the region at a high level.
