San Marzano, 'Tramari', Primitivo Rose, Salento, Puglia, Italy

In 1962, 19 vine growers from San Marzano whose families had farmed the land for generations, combined their efforts to establish 'Cantine San Marzano'. The fusion of time-honoured tradition, passion and contemporary techniques, enables this winery to produce wines with distinctive varietal and regional characteristics while reflecting the local terroir. In the 2017 Sommelier Wine Awards, San Marzano was awarded European Producer of the Year. This Rose which is made from the Primitivo grape, is a very appealing pale and tangy rosé with aromas of roses and red cherries against a creamy background of Mediterranean spice. Excellent on a warm sunny day.
