Structure and balance are the main aspects of a sensual sip, reminiscent of the heat and sunlight of Salento.
Giunonico is a 100% Primitivo that comes from the Manduria area, in the province of Taranto, overlooking the Ionian Sea. On the mainly sandy soil the plants are traditionally cultivated as bush vines. The Primitivo di Manduria Riserva Giunoninco by Paololeo comes from 70-year-old vines, which yield only 1 kg of grapes per plant. Therefore the wine is very concentrated.
The harvest is manual and is done early in the morning when the temperatures are not yet high. The wine ferments at a controlled temperature and maceration with the skins last for about 15 days. The wine ages in large oak barrels for 20 months and another 4 months in steel vats.
