93 POINTS: Wine Direct Tasting Team

"Puglia does generous reds better than just about anywhere, and this delicious Primitivo is proof. Bursting with ripe plum, black cherry and blackberry fruit, it's plush and velvety with hints of sweet spice, liquorice and dark chocolate. Soft, rounded tannins and a smooth, warming finish make this an irresistibly easy-drinking Italian red that's made for pizza & pasta."
- Wine Direct Tasting Team

Puglia (the "heel" of Italy) is Primitivo's spiritual home. The region enjoys long, hot summers, cooling Adriatic and Ionian sea breezes, and predominantly limestone and clay soils that help retain moisture during the dry growing season. These conditions consistently produce wines with generous ripe fruit, naturally soft tannins & plush texture.
