Pillastro Primitivo Puglia 2022

Pillastro our bestselling Italian reds – customers love all that richness, warmth and bold, ripe fruit. It comes from Puglia's Salento region, in Italy’s deep south, best known for big, reds made from the prized local variety Primitivo. Packed with spiced plum and raspberry flavour, this is a rich, dark, velvety red. It's from maestro of Puglia, Angelo Maci, and his pride and joy winery that has five times been voted Italy’s Winery or co-op of the Year. Angelo started the cellar over 30 years ago with 15 growers, now there are over 1,000 and he knows them all by name. It's not only growers he saves, but the ancient traditions and almost-extinct grape varieties that make these wines so rich, characterful and super-charged. This rich, powerful red is a great match to spicy tomato pasta.
