Fanova Primitivo is made from carefully selected Primitivo grapes harvested from low-yield vineyards in the elevated, limestone-rich areas of Gioia del Colle. The grapes are picked at optimal ripeness to preserve both their intense fruit character and natural acidity.

Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing precise extraction and preservation of aromas. The wine is then partially aged in oak barrels, where it develops additional complexity, gaining subtle notes of spice, vanilla, and cocoa while softening its structure.

The goal of the winemaking process is to create an elegant, terroir-driven Primitivo wine that balances ripe fruit intensity with refined oak influence and freshness.

Grilled beef (steak) - The wine’s structure and tannins pair perfectly with the richness of red meat.

Game dishes (venison, wild boar) - Its complex and spicy profile complements the bold flavors of game.

Tomato-based pasta dishes (ragù, Bolognese) - The acidity and fruitiness harmonize beautifully with tomato sauces.

Aged cheeses (Pecorino, Parmesan) - The salty, umami flavors enhance the wine’s depth and long finish.

Spiced grilled vegetables - The fruit-forward character and oak notes balance smoky and spiced flavors.
