The Wine

Il Papavero Primitivo is dramatically rich and fruity, and captures the bold, juicy flavours of one of Puglia’s top grapes.

The Papavero family of wines are among our customers’ favourites – as winemaker Scipione Giuliani always manages to capture a impressive combination of the essence of the grape, the spirit of Italy and a delicious drinkability.

This is the granddaddy of the group, made purely from Primitivo from a plot of 50-year-old vines, resulting in very concentrated flavours. Scipione discovered the vines in Puglia and insisted that the grapes be bottled solo. To match the richness of the fruit, he aged the wine in barrel for several months, lending it mellow roundness and complexity.

Il Papavero Primitivo is a weighty red, best served with similarly hearty food. Enjoy with spaghetti with tomato, garlic and basil sauce, or with roast meats or pork casserole.
