Puglia's famous Primitivo meets one of its lesser-known native grapes, Susumaniello — a rich, polished and deliciously generous southern Italian red.
"A generous, full-flavoured southern Italian red, brimming with ripe black cherry and plum, sweet spice, liquorice and a touch of chocolate. Soft, rounded and beautifully plush, this is a wine made for immediate enjoyment — rich, warming and effortlessly easy to drink."

At the very heel of Italy, Salento is a land of brilliant sunshine, warm Mediterranean breezes and ancient vineyards. Stretching across southern Puglia, this is one of Italy’s great regions for generous, characterful reds — wines that capture the warmth and abundance of the south.
The vineyards are shaped by the Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers moderated by cooling sea breezes from the Adriatic and Ionian seas. Old vines, limestone and mineral-rich soils help give the wines their distinctive combination of ripe, sun-filled fruit and freshness.
