Primitivo

Rich, ripe and full of southern Italian charm, this Primitivo brings juicy blackberries, dark cherries and plum, with warming hints of vanilla, spice and dark chocolate. It’s wonderfully full-bodied and smooth, with a velvety texture and a long, generous finish.

Think Mediterranean comfort food for the perfect pairing: rosemary-roasted pork belly, fennel-spiced sausages or a slow-cooked tomato and beef lasagne. Or, try a rich mushroom and thyme pappardelle or roasted red peppers stuffed with herby rice and Parmesan. Generous, warming and packed with character,  just the sort of bottle to bring everyone to the table.
