Piano Chiuso Riserva, 2022, Masca del Tacco – Primitivo di Manduria DOC, Puglia, Italy 🇮🇹

Overview
100% Primitivo sourced from the Manduria zone in southern Puglia, one of the most concentrated terroirs for the grape. This Riserva expression highlights the richness and power typical of Primitivo di Manduria while maintaining notable balance and polish.

Aromas & Flavors
Ripe blackberry, black cherry, and plum layered with dark chocolate, sweet spice, and subtle Mediterranean herbal undertones.

Mouthfeel
Full-bodied and muscular with dense fruit concentration. Smooth tannins and a polished texture lead to a long and satisfying finish with minimal rustic edges.

Food Pairings
Braised meats, grilled steak, lamb dishes, hearty ragù pasta, aged cheeses.

Verdict
A powerful yet refined Primitivo that showcases the depth and character of Manduria with impressive balance and drinkability.

Did You Know?
Primitivo di Manduria wines often reach higher alcohol levels due to the region’s warm climate and naturally sugar-rich grapes, contributing to their bold structure and dense fruit profile.

🍷 Personal Pick
The real deal. Bold, character-driven, and dangerously drinkable, hard to stop at just one glass. — 2 months ago

Pale pink, crisp, light orange citrus aroma. Strawberries, white peach taste and citrus finish. Funky short fat bottle doesn’t fit in wine refrigerator however it’s short enough to fit in main refrigerators shelves. — 4 years ago

An incredible primitivo for it's value. Shockingly well-balanced with a long pleasurable finish. Fresh raspberry jam and vanilla with a touch of tobacco and oak. Probably one of the best value wines I've had. Enjoyed with suppli, stuffed zucchini flowers, and tonarelli alla carbonara. So good that we had to drink two bottles. — 6 years ago
