Description
Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria DOP is a wine born to express the authenticity of the Primitivo grape in a new and modern interpretation. The first bottle of Sessantanni was filled after the acquisition of a 40-hectare vineyard (Alberello) that was over sixty years old, eventually renamed "Valle del Sessantanni" (Sixty-Year-Old Valley). A single vineyard marked a turning point for the entire area and, with its unique style, earned a reputation as the international benchmark for Primitivo wines.
The Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria is San Marzano's flagship wine, and the 2018 vintage has once again received a 98/100 rating from Italian wine critic Luca Maroni, making it one of the best-rated (high-end) Primitivo di Mandurias. Vivino customers have awarded the wine a high 4-star rating (4.5*) and the maximum trebicchieri rating, earning it three glasses of Gambero Rosso. For lovers of this sultry, warm, full-bodied wine, the Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria is a true paradise.
The grapes for Sessantanni come from an old vineyard located around the famous village of Manduria, in Puglia—in the heel of Italy. The Primitvo grape, incidentally, is called Zinfandel in America and is currently without a doubt one of the most popular grape varieties. Excellent quality at a fantastic price-performance ratio. Along with the iconic Primitivo di Manduria from Gianfranco Fino and the Puglia POP Luminaria , San Marzano is certainly among the top three best Primitivo di Manduria wines. Sessantanni is aged for 12 months in French and American oak. This is clearly evident on the nose with vanilla notes and aromas of cherries, plums, spices, leather, and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, powerful, creamy, and a fruit bomb with notes of black fruit, cocoa, coffee, and vanilla. The finish is grand and captivating. It never ends. This beautiful version is a 1.5 liter Magnum which is packed in a beautiful black wooden box.

In 1962, 19 winegrowers from San Marzano joined forces to create "Cantine San Marzano". Today, this cooperative has more than 1200 growers and uses modern and technologically advanced installations without compromising the very old wine tradition of Puglia. San Marzano is located in Puglia, in the heart of the acclaimed DOC "Primitivo di Manduria", between two seas (Ionian and Adriatic).
The provinces of Taranto and Brindisi offer a landscape where vineyards and olive trees grow side by side on a red substrate. This soil and the Mediterranean terroir play an essential role in the production of high-quality wines. The climate is extreme, with difficult conditions: drought, frost, Sirocco wind. Yet these passionate winemakers ensure that even grapes from the oldest vineyards produce full-bodied and elegant wines. Respect for the traditions of Puglia and passion for wine are paramount, but go hand in hand with technological developments and clever marketing. The modern wines of San Marzano are now extremely popular in Italian wine bars. The San Marzano label is their premium line, which even appears on the table in Michelin restaurants.
Using modern vinification techniques, San Marzano produces elegant and clean wines that pay tribute to the ancient Apulian winemaking traditions. This fusion of time-honored tradition, passion and contemporary craftsmanship allows the production of wines with distinctive varietal characteristics that reflect the essence of the local terroir. The team of winemakers is built to create the idiosyncratic and innovative style that makes San Marzano recognizable from the first sip. Caterina Bellanova and Davide Ragusa were born and raised in Puglia: Caterina represents the exquisite touch essential to make iconic wines, Davide is a young and talented winemaker, he studied oenology in Florence and developed his practical skills during several harvests, including in Abroad.
The strength of San Marzano lies in its versatility. However, she does have some hobbyhorses. She is a real star in the Primitivo from Di Manduria. San Marzano is also the right address for the wine drinker who is looking for depth and complexity. How about the San Marzano Collezione Cinquanta. This is a complex red wine that unites all the beauty of Salento, part of Puglia. But the real winner is the Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria, a real top wine that the whole world has fallen in love with. It was not for nothing that this powerhouse received no less than 98 points from Luca Maroni, who is considered the Italian counterpart of Robert Parker.
