Tasting: The sight shows a strong character given by its lively and intense garnet red color. The scents strongly and finely represent the characteristics of Primitivo di Manduria. The bouquet is definitely based on red fruit: cherry, plum and blood orange. These aromas are flanked by sweet spices such as cinnamon and star anise and toasted scents of cocoa. A warm and enveloping scent of licorice and carob is pleasantly teased by sensations of Mediterranean scrub and balsamic notes of eucalyptus. The taste is remarkably balanced. The wine enters soft and round, but fresh notes give dynamism to the whole. The tannins are sweet and not invasive at all. The wine structure and its freshness perfectly balance the alcoholic sensation. This makes Don Filippo a wine with a smooth sip and a long persistency that recalls the intriguing fruity notes previously perceived.

PLEASE NOTE: For orders over 12 bottles an additional delivery charge may need to be added. We will contact you prior to dispatch to confirm any additional charge or you can contact us directly for a quote.
