Tormaresca Primitivo Torcicoda Salento IGT 2022
Unleash the bold soul of Southern Italy with Tormaresca Torcicoda Primitivo Salento IGT 2022, a flagship red from the Antinori family’s Puglia estate. Sourced from 30+ year-old bush vines in the sun-drenched Salento peninsula, this 100% Primitivo is aged 15 months in French oak barriques—delivering a plush, opulent expression of Puglia’s iconic grape.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Black plum, dried fig, black cherry jam, dark chocolate, and Mediterranean herbs
- Palate: Full-bodied and velvety with ripe black fruit, cocoa, sweet spice, and silky tannins
- Finish: Warm, persistent, and balanced—ripe fruit meets savory earth and subtle vanilla
Heritage & Terroir
Crafted by Tormaresca (Antinori’s Puglia project), Torcicoda is named after the ancient torchio (wine press) and the twisted vines (coda torta) of old-vine Primitivo. Hand-harvested from red clay and limestone soils, fermented in stainless steel, then refined in 60% new French oak. A benchmark for modern Salento reds.
Perfect Pairings
- Grilled lamb with rosemary
- Aged pecorino or taleggio
- Wild mushroom risotto or truffle pasta
