The Primitivo di Manduria "Es" 2022 by Gianfranco Fino is a powerful and complex red wine from Puglia, Southern Italy. Made from Primitivo, a grape variety known for its bold aromas and high alcohol content, this wine offers remarkable depth and intensity. On the nose, it reveals rich notes of ripe black fruits such as plum and blackberry, combined with subtle spicy undertones.

The 2022 vintage stands out for its impressive concentration and complexity. Despite its full body and high alcohol, the wine remains elegant and silky, with integrated tannins and a well-balanced structure. The Manduria region is famed for its red, mineral-rich soils and warm Mediterranean climate — ideal conditions for Primitivo. Winemaker Gianfranco Fino is celebrated for his low-yield philosophy and meticulous grape selection, which consistently result in wines of outstanding character and quality.
