The palate is structured and surprisingly full-bodied, balanced perfectly by zippy acidity and a fresh fruit character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe grapes for this wine are grown in vineyards located in the Lizzano area. Suitable vineyards need to be sought out because Rosato needs both colour and full flavour at lower ripeness, which is not typical of Puglia. The sandy vineyards are high up on the hillside, dry farmed and are over 30 years old.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eUpon arrival at the winery, the grapes were crushed and immediately pressed. Contact time with the skins was measured in seconds rather than hours. The grapes were processed as fast as possible in order to preserve the fresh fruit flavours and extract just the right amount of colour. The juice then underwent a slow fermentation at low temperatures of approximately 7ºC to retain the delicate perfumes of the grapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eMark Shannon and his partner Elvezia Sbalchiero have succeeded in making Primitivo one of Italy’s most talked about grape varieties. By paying high prices for the best grapes (sourced from 70 to 100-year-old vines) and focussing solely on quality and a modern style, they have revolutionised the style and calibre of Primitivo. The continued success of A Mano is at least partly attributable to the knowledge that Mark and Elvezia have gleaned from over 18 vintages in the region. Not only are they getting access to Salento’s best grapes, but their growers have also come to realise that if they want the higher price paid by A Mano, they need to provide even better grapes than in previous years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehttps:\/\/www.amanowine.com\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64592546562425,"sku":"90205425","price":12.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/AManoPrimitivoRosato.jpg?v=1789555864","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/a-mano-primitivo-rosato-2025","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
