Vinification
The grapes used for Masso Antico Primitivo are
grown using the vine training method known as
“Alberello”, which has ancient origins and is typical
of the Mediterranean area of Italy. It was
developed to compensate for the lack of water and
the very hot climate. The now very rare Alberello
system represents a very important part of the
cultural and oenological heritage of Puglia. The
rigorous hand‐picking is followed by a meticulous
selection of the destemmed grapes. The grape
withering on plants, favored by the sea wind, and a
slow maturation in French oak barrels for about 6
months results in an outstanding full‐bodied wine
with soft tannins that release vanilla notes in the
finish.
