  Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation carried out spontaneously with maceration in steel at a controlled temperature for 15-20 days.  It refines 12 months in steel and another 12 in 750 liter Slavonian oak barrels with music therapy to promote micro-oxygenation and refinement of the Primitivo. No clarification, stabilization or filtration.

Ultra complex: dried violet, then red fruits, black cherry, plum and blackberry. Followed by notes of undergrowth and very mineral and salty returns. Then again carob and cloves, typical of Primitivi aged in wood in Gioia del Colle. Aromatic herbs and spices on the finish

Round and warm but incredibly slim, velvety tannins, savory and very long. Almondy on the finish.

The history of Cantina Fatalone is romantic, in every sense.

Not only love for wine but also for women, and precisely for this last passion, Nicola Petrera, the future founder of the company, took the nickname of Fatalone, at the end of the eighteenth century.

Now, after 5 generations of winemakers, at the helm of the winery we find Pasquale, his great-grandson, who proposes an idea of ​​natural wine that respects the territory, characterized by marine fossils and breezes coming from the Adriatic and Ionian.

Acertified organic farming, without irrigation, spontaneous grassing with green manure, spontaneous fermentation with steel maceration

The wines benefit from strong temperature variations and manage to be full-bodied but of great freshness.
