Manduria is a municipality located in the province of Taranto, in the Puglia region, in northern Salento.

The Zinfandel Sinfarosa Californiano DOP is a red wine produced through the use of California Zinfandel grapes grafted on vines of Primitivo grapes strong> autochthonous of the region. The wine is produced in the ""Cru La Terra Nera" estate, located in one of the four areas identified by the ""Accademia dei Racemi"" project for the zoning of the < strong>Primitivo di Manduria. The La Terra Nera Cru is characterized by fertile and productive soils, but sometimes marshy and deep, and produces a Primitivo with a dense and persistent tannic structure. The wine is then aged in French and American wooden barrels to enhance its aromatic notes. The name Sinfarosa derives from the presence of deposits of dark soil, formed with the degradation of organic material and erosion of rocks, which give the wine an intense red color and a full-bodied and complex flavour. The wine has obtained the protected designation of origin (DOP) as it is produced according to precise rules and quality requirements established by Italian and European regulations.
