"A very polished and velvety Primitivo with good freshness, balance and purity of fruit. Great with roasted wild duck in a dense red wine and blueberry sauce and gentle dry spices.” BY RAIMONDS TOMSONS, BEST SOMMELIER OF THE WORLD IN 2017 AND 2023 (A.S.I.)

Lionel Messi, a true wine enthusiast, sought to create a collection that reflected his values of excellence and dedication. To bring this vision to life, he entrusted Marco Maci, one of Italy’s most renowned winemakers.

Puglia, located in the southern region of Italy, is a land rich in wine history and tradition. This region is famous for its Mediterranean climate, with long sunny days and moderate temperatures, ideal for growing Primitivo grapes. Puglia’s calcareous and clay soil helps give the wine its complexity and distinctive character.
