The “FATALONE GIOIA DEL COLLE DOC PRIMITIVO RISERVA 2004” gets the Mention ad Honorem of the Guide Vini Buoni d’Italia 2009, “for distinguishing itself by the qualitative rigour of its interpretation and the high-level expression of its clear correspondence to grape and land of origin”

For the first time in the story of the Gioia del Colle D.O.C. Primitivo, the Az. Agr. Petrera, to coincide with its 20 years since its first bottle in 1987, will realize a vertical tasting with 10 vintages of its Fatalone Riserva. The event will take place in the prestigious Throne Room of the Swabian Castle of Gioia del Colle, and it will be exclusive as much as unrepeatable experience, due to the little number of existing samples for some vintages. For the tasting an 8-expert commission has been appointed among oenologists, specialized journalists and wine operators.
