Cellar
Produttori di Manduria is the oldest cooperative in Apulia.
The Cantina's adventure began in 1928 when a small group of 'enlightened' wine growers took over an old factory and created the 'Wine Federation', an association of producers that four years later, on 9 July 1932, formalised its legal status as a cooperative with the establishment of the 'Consorzio Produttori Vini e Mosti rossi superiori da taglio per la zona di Manduria'.
Today, the Cantina has around 1000 hectares of vineyards, half of which are still cultivated using the traditional alberello system, and strenuously defends the work of 400 small wine craftsmen, the only ones who can boast the appellative of Maestri in Primitivo.
Description
Zin is an Apulian white wine made from Fiano grapes. It is a pleasant, savoury and fresh wine. Zin in dialect means Sea Urchin.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Bright straw yellow colour. The nose is intense with aromas of white peach, melon, herbs and pine, which translate into a ripe and structured palate. In the mouth it is warm and soft, with a decisive sapid perception on the palate accompanied by a nice freshness. Pleasant floral note that lingers in the finish.
Storage time:
2 years
Vinification
blank with thermoconditioning of the fermentation process at 18° C
