About the Winery--San Marzano
--In 1962, 19 vine growers from San Marzano, whose families had farmed the land for generations, combined their efforts to establish 'Cantine San Marzano'.
--Through the decades this cooperative has grown significantly, attracting over 1200 vine growers, using modern and technologically advanced vinification techniques to produce elegant wines, while paying homage to the ancient Apulian wine traditions.
--Nowadays, the fusion of time honoured tradition and passion, with contemporary techniques, enables this winery to produce wines with distinctive varietal and regional characteristics, which wonderfully reflect the local terroir.
About San Marzano Cinquanta Collezione N.V.
**A deep ruby red colour in the glass with purple tints, the Collezione has an intense and complex bouquet with notes of prune and jammy red fruit mixed with the spicy scent of vanilla and liquorice. Rich, powerful and concentrated on the palate, it is packed full of sweet, ripe fruit. A full-bodied wine, it finishes extremely long with elegant tannins and a soft, sweetness.
**It is produced with Primitivo and Negroamaro grapes, harvested entirely by hand in September. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature. Subsequently the wine is aged in French oak barriques for about 12 months before being bottled.
