Product Notes

A Mano Primitivo di Puglia is a rich and full-bodied red wine that is made from the Primitivo grape variety grown in Puglia, Italy. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, which includes hand-harvesting the grapes and fermenting them in open vats with natural yeasts. This process, combined with ageing the wine in oak barrels, creates a complex wine with aromas of ripe black fruit, vanilla, and a hint of spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a velvety texture and a long finish. A Mano Primitivo di Puglia is a perfect pairing for bold dishes such as grilled meats, hearty stews, and spicy pastas.

Tasting Notes

Deeply coloured and exuberant on the nose, with perfumes of ripe, red fruit, especially raspberries and a spicy, smoky edge from the oak ageing. On the palate it is youthful and full-bodied, with a great balance between ripe, rounded fruit characters including blackberry and blueberry, sweet, toasty oak and ripe, full tannins.

About the Winery

A Mano

Though there are many types of wines in the world today, Italian wines belong to a different league of their own because they are authentic and belong to a rich tradition. The A Mano wines are a perfect example of one such historic Italian wine label, whose wines have a rich legacy to abide by.  Made from indigenous grapes grown on fertile vineyards, these hand-made wines are considered as one of the best in Italy today.

It was during 1998 that Mark and Elvezia visited the region of Puglia in Italy to take a look at the Primitivo vineyards – an ancient expanse of old vines. They fell in love with the place instantly and started using the native Apulian grapes for creating their wines, as a symbol of respect for the terroirs where the fruits were cultivated.

Located right in the heart of the Mediterranean Coast, Puglia is blessed with excellent natural resources and an 800-km coastline. This ancient place is replete with many anecdotes of history, art, tradition and culture, which reflect on the wines created here as well. 

A Mano Bianco, the only white wine created by this label, is quite unusual and one of its kind in the entire country of Italy. It is made from a blend of 90% Fiano Minutolo and 10% Greek varietals cultivated in areas such as Martina, Franca, Massafra and others in Puglia.

The A Mano Rosato is the only rose’ wine from this label and it is made from 100% Primitivo grapes. Some of the red wines by A Mano are:

  • Primitive Hand – 100% Primitivo Grapes; 14% alcohol
  • Handmade Negroamaro – 100% Negroamaro Grapes; 14% alcohol
  • Primitive Imprint – 100% Primitivo Withered Grapes; 14.5% alcohol
  • Imprint Susumaniello – 100% Susumaniello Grapes; 14% alcohol
  • Primitive First Hand – 100% Primitivo Grapes; 15% alcohol
