Aging: Torcicoda is a wine produced by Tormaresca from 100% Primitivo grapes, originating from vines grown as saplings and spurs in a cordon at Tenuta Maìme di S. Pietro Vernotico. The grapes are harvested only dry in the first week of September. After pressing, maceration, managed with soft pumping and removal, lasts 15 days in stainless steel tanks. During this phase, the wines complete alcoholic fermentation at a temperature not higher than 26 ° C. After vinification of the wine, malolactic fermentation takes place directly in French and Hungarian oak barrels, in which it is aged for about 10 months. This is followed by an additional period of 8 months of aging in bottle before being released on the market.
Serving temperature: 14°-16°
Food pairing: Great with Spaghetti Bolognese, roast lamb, young veal and simply cooked red meats.
Storage potential: up to 10-20 years.
