The Primitivo I.G.T. Puglia is an intense and enveloping red wine, an authentic expression of a warm and fertile land suited to viticulture.
On the nose, it shows excellent aromatic complexity, ranging from plum jam and blackcurrant to spicy notes of pepper and rosemary. Intriguing hints of toasted almond and vanilla are also perceived.
On the palate, it is full, warm, and enveloping, with a good acidic note, savory character, and excellent persistence. The finish reveals spicy and almond notes.
It pairs perfectly with red meats, roasts, game, and aged cheeses.
