Scores

This is fresh and medium-bodied, with hints of mocha and smoke lacing the dried raspberry and black cherry fruit. A balanced red, showing spice and citrus accents on the creamy finish.

Tasting Notes

The minerality of the nose creates a delicate combination of morello and sour cherry and prune. Floral and spicy notes follow in a superbly persistent finish. Gentle tannins, impressive acidity combine with the classic delicacy and alcoholic content of Primitivo in the flavors of this once forceful but now elegant and noble wine. A perfect partner to pasta with rich meat sauces and rich cheeses.

ProducerCantele

Having fallen in love with Puglia, Giovanni Battista Cantele and his wife Teresa Manara decided to move to Salento to establish a winery in the late 1950s. The whole family is now involved in the business and carries on the legacy with the same passion and energy. While the primary focus is on local varieties like Primitivo, Negroamaro and Bombino, the winery also produces pure expressions of international varieties. The aim is to redefine Puglia’s wines and promote the unique terroirs of Salento with wine of great intensity, precision and freshness.
