The winemaking
The production of “Primo Passo” begins with manual harvesting, carefully selecting 100% Cesanese grapes. The grapes are destemmed and subjected to an innovative vinification process using whole berries in steel tanks. This technique preserves the varietal characteristics of the grape. Pump-overs are performed moderately to achieve the right balance of extraction, with a maceration period of six days. The result is a wine with a clear ruby red color, expressing the desired freshness and lightness.

On the nose, “Primo Passo” offers an array of aromas ranging from fresh red fruits like currant and cherry to delicate floral notes of violet. The olfactory finish is enriched with hints of dried fruit and Mediterranean scrub, creating a complex and inviting olfactory experience. On the palate, it is light, with a silky tannic texture free of any astringency. Its lightness makes it a versatile wine, elegantly accompanying both relaxing moments and informal dinners.
Food Pairings
“Primo Passo” lends itself to numerous gastronomic pairings thanks to its freshness and versatility. It is ideal with appetizers of cold cuts and fresh cheeses, light pasta dishes, or vegetable risottos. It pairs perfectly with white meats and fish dishes, as it does not overpower delicate flavors. Its carefree nature also makes it perfect for an aperitif with friends, enhancing the pleasure of sharing a good glass of wine.
In summary, “Primo Passo” from Cantina Vin Viandante is a wine that celebrates tradition and innovation, an invitation to explore the Cesanese territory with lightness and curiosity.
