About L'Archetipo Primitivo Aglianico Puglia

Sometimes, doing nothing may seem like the easiest option, yet it is anything but. In a world that relentlessly urges us to be productive, to intervene, to correct, and to hasten, true wisdom lies in knowing when to pause and allow things to follow their natural course. This act of non-doing, of trusting processes without rushing them, is indeed an art that demands far more patience and contemplation than we might envisage.

This philosophy is what inspires synergistic agriculture, an approach that transcends organic and biodynamic methods, seeking harmony between the land, the plants, and the environment without imposing anything. Following the principles of the Japanese Masanobu Fukuoka and his concept of "do-nothing farming," some vintners have realised that by allowing nature to express itself fully, a much more authentic and powerful result is achieved. One of the projects that best embodies this vision is L'Archetipo, led by Francesco Valentino Dibenedetto in the very heart of Puglia, Italy.

L'Archetipo is a winery that embraces simplicity and respect for the rhythm of nature. Here, there is no ploughing, no use of chemicals, no intervention beyond what is strictly necessary. The vines are cultivated following the principles of synergistic agriculture, where the soil is left to its own pace, allowing microorganisms and plants to work in symbiosis to create a living and healthy ecosystem.

A wine that perfectly embodies this philosophy is L'Archetipo Primitivo Aglianico, a red born from two great Mediterranean varieties: primitivo, smooth and warm, and aglianico, profound and tannic. The magic unfolds when these two varieties meet, creating a wine with body and character, yet at the same time, possessing a serenity that only time and patience can bestow.

The winemaking adheres to this same principle of non-intervention: spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, extended maceration, and ageing in steel and wooden barrels, without clarifiers or filtration, allowing the wine to express itself in the purest and most natural manner possible.

Such is L'Archetipo Primitivo Aglianico. A wine that teaches us that sometimes, in the art of viticulture, the best decision is the one made in silence, allowing nature to take its course, unhurried, uninhibited. The result is an authentic, complex wine brimming with life.

 

2019

L'Archetipo Primitivo Aglianico Puglia 2019 captivates at first glance with its intense ruby red hue, evoking the richness of this Italian wine. Upon approaching the nose, one discovers vibrant aromas of ripe cherries and blackberries, interwoven with subtle notes of dried figs and a hint of freshly roasted coffee. On the palate, it surprises with its balance and smooth texture, where the tannins integrate elegantly, leaving a sensation of fullness and length in each sip. This wine is particularly recommended for its harmony between fruit and tannins. The 2019 vintage in Puglia was distinguished by its warm climate, which allowed for optimal ripening, resulting in a wine that captivates with its intensity and depth. Ideal for those seeking to enjoy a wine with character and complexity.
