Primitivo di Manduria DOC "UNO" · Masseria Lavolpe, Puglia

98 points, Luca Maroni on the 2023 vintage (the 2022 scored 97). This is "UNO," the flagship Primitivo di Manduria DOC from Masseria Lavolpe, in the heart of Puglia.

Intense ruby in the glass, a nose of ripe plum, cherry, sweet spice, and a touch of vanilla, and a palate that comes across delicate, balanced, and harmonious. 100% Primitivo, hand-harvested at peak ripeness, then aged roughly nine months in French and American oak.

The name nods to the grape itself. Primitivo comes from the Latin primativus, "the first to ripen," since these grapes come in ahead of nearly everything else in the vineyard. By DOC rule, Primitivo di Manduria can only be released two years after harvest, so what is in the bottle has already earned its patience.

Direct-imported from the family estate. No additives, nothing manipulated, just Primitivo the way Puglia has always made it.
