Prima Terra was born from the idea and passion and love for Cinque Terre in coastal Liguria. If you haven't been, put it on your list! Walter De Battè is one of the few young and idealistic wine growers and is known worldwide for the quality of his unique wines. Winegrowing has been in his family father back than he can trace. He started at a coop in the 1990s and became disenchanted by the DOC regulations and today intentionally bottles his wines without the appellation and many other regional measures. This is a blend of grapes planted on schistous soils and is very reminiscent of a northern Rhône wine.

Glossary

Grenache

The distinguished Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas appellations are both characterized by significant percentages of Grenache, while in Tavel and Lirac the grape is used to make...

Syrah

We'd like to clear this up once and for all: the Shiraz grape is genetically identical to Syrah. Australian winemakers put "Shiraz" on the map (and, many would argue, vice versa), and the term is now used throughout much of the New World. Let it never be said, however, that Shiraz and Syrah are the same thing: the region in which the grape is grown determines much about the flavor of the wine it will produce. Typically, New World Shiraz yields bigger, fruitier wines than the the peppery Syrahs...

Liguria

While perhaps more famous for its topless beaches, Liguria also produces some truly outstanding and unusual white wines. As the region is dominated primarily by coastal villages, it’s not surprising that the typical Liguria diet is rich in seafood - and as such, snappy, high-acidity whites are quite the M.O. One notable exception is the wine made from the idiosyncratic Pigato grape, which yields a softer, more lush wine with distinctive notes of herbs and (we’re not being tongue-and-cheek...
