Vigneti del Salento, a Farnese Vini winery, is located in Puglia the heel of the boot of Italy. This peninsula is an old wine-growing area dating back to the ancient Greeks. It is a very hot region cooled by nighttime maritime breezes. Vigneti del Salento has a special arrangement with the many growers in this region. The winemaking team carefully selects the best portions of each vineyard depending on clones, position in the vineyard and age of vines. They then direct the farming of these

\nvineyard rows including reducing the yield per vine, to ensure the highest quality grapes. Since most of the vineyards are family owned, they tend to be smaller, allowing complete harvesting of all the vineyards in about 3 days.
The southern Italian region of Puglia is home to the powerful, full-bodied Primitivo wines. The Vigne Vecchie is made from hand-harvested grapes. The vines are attributed to an age of more than seventy years. The wine has an intense ruby red color. On the nose, complex flavors of plum and cherry with a hint of tobacco. Typical of Primitivo is the pleasant subtle spice. The Vigne Vecchie Primitivo di Manduria has a full-bodied, soft character and offers notes of cocoa, coffee and vanilla. The Italian red wine is also full-bodied with soft tannins. Denominazione d'Origine Protetta
