About Tagaro Muso Rosso Primitivo

Among the myriad picturesque scenes that the expansive Apulia offers, one is undoubtedly the Itria Valley, the "trulloshire," with its charming villages, local traditions, and natural splendour. We find ourselves in a strip of land in the heart of Apulia, which stretches towards the sea at a distance of approximately twenty minutes. Here, the quaint stone houses shaped like inverted cones emerge as if we were in a fairy-tale landscape with gnomes and elves hiding among farms and olive groves that extend as far as the eye can see. However, they are not mere decoration nor postcards designed for visitors; they are rural architecture born out of necessity, from the agricultural life of entire generations.

In this setting operates Masseria Tagaro, a winery situated in the heart of Puglia that perceives wine as a direct extension of the landscape. There is no artifice or desire to reinterpret the territory, but rather a quite faithful reading of what the climate and land dictate each year.

The star here is the primitivo, an early-ripening red variety that finds its most generous expression in Puglia. The grape develops an intense, ripe black fruit, with volume and a distinctly Mediterranean character. It is not a restrained variety, but expressive, direct, almost immediate in its manner of presentation. The clay and limestone soils of the valley provide structure and help maintain a certain balance in an environment where the heat could easily lead everything towards overripeness.

In the winery, the process is quite straightforward. Harvesting occurs at the optimal moment of ripeness, when the grape has reached the balance between sugar and phenolic maturity. Then it is destemmed, removing the stalk, and the grape undergoes maceration with the skins to extract colour, aroma, and structure. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with temperature control, aiming to preserve the wine's most fruity expression. Subsequently, it undergoes malolactic fermentation, adding roundness to the ensemble. After a brief refinement, it is bottled, maintaining that direct and Mediterranean profile.

After traversing the Itria Valley, amidst trulli and olive groves, Tagaro Muso Rosso Primitivo fits naturally. A wine of ripe fruit, enveloping texture, and Mediterranean character, designed for the table and to be enjoyed without complications.
