In southern Salento's "Conca d'Oro," Masserie Dugento produces exceptional wines under Giordano Emo Capodilista and Francesco Marra's leadership. Their renovated 1930s cellars house a modern operation guided by Venetian oenologist Andrea Boaretti. The estate's 10 hectares feature 25-year-old Primitivo vines in potassium-rich red clay soils, with Mediterranean proximity moderating the intense heat. Through restricted yields and temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel, they achieve remarkable quality despite challenging conditions. This Primitivo delivers vibrant dark fruit flavors complemented by characteristic peppery notes and subtle earthy undertones. The palate shows impressive concentration with balanced acidity and soft tannins, creating a fresh, fruit-forward wine that beautifully captures this distinctive terroir's potential.
