The name Néprica is an acronym for three varieties (Negroamaro, Primitivo and Cabernet Sauvignon). Almost 25 years ago, Tormaresca started with this wine. Since then, the three varieties are no longer blended, but made independently, as separate wines. And the Primitivo, with its honest and pure character, clearly ran the biggest course.

The hand-selected and destemmed grapes were fermented in tanks, in which the wine was also aged until the next harvest. It’s a textbook example of briefly-aged, unoaked Primitivo, with all the aromas and flavours that make the variety so sought-after by many: red fruit, black cherry, liquorice, soft and a long-lasting palate.
