Primitivo: Of uncertain origin, its introduction into Apulia may perhaps be traced back to the Phoenician and Greek colonization.
However, it should be pointed out that this selection was carried out
within the “old local vineyards”; therefore, the vine was already known
in the area during that time, since it could be found in old vineyards
of the late 18th century. Primitivo is identical to Zinfandel.
