Tempo al Vino, Lianto, 12 Bottle Case, 75cl

vibrant fruit and spice we'd all expect from a Primitivo. That being said, it's a much fresher and fruitier style in comparison with more traditional Primitivos, so we find it much more playful and easy drinking.

Tempo al Vino is a small offshoot of Schola Sarmenti in Salento, Puglia, whose wines are crafted by young winemaker Sylvia Formigli. Their young vineyards are just a short distance from the sea, farmed organically and maintained under the old Apulian training system called Albarello, which has been used since ancient times. The native varieties of the region such as Negroamaro and Primitivo are promoted and made to a very high standard under organic farming principles.
