Tenuta Longhe, Primitivo Red Wine IGT Salento

“Salento Primitivo, straightforward and honest.”

A red wine from Salento, in southern Puglia, made only from Primitivo grapes: rich, full-bodied and velvety, with aromas of ripe red fruit. Made by Cantina Monsellato.

Pure Primitivo IGT Salento Dry and full-bodied

Among the wines of Salento, single-varietal Primitivo is one of the best loved. Tenuta Longhe is a straightforward, honest wine, rich and full-bodied, velvety and fragrant with ripe red fruit. Its bold, rounded character wins over everyone, from the north of Italy to the south: it is the red to always keep at home.

It comes from a single grape variety, Primitivo, which has a long history in Salento and has deeply shaped the farming of this land. It carries the IGT Salento geographical indication. In the glass it shows a lively red colour; on the palate it is dry and slightly tannic, intense and complex: an Apulian red with real character, one that also appeals to the most experienced palates.

At the table

What to drink it with

🥩 Red meat Grilled or cooked over embers: its bold character stands up to the flavour of the meat.	🍲 Stews and slow cooking With stews, slow-braised meat dishes and oven-baked dishes.
🧀 Cured meats and cheese With boards of artisan cured meats and cheeses, and with traditional pork dishes, especially those from Puglia.	🍝 Traditional pasta dishes With the first courses of Italian cooking: ragù and creamy tomato sauces.
