Description

"Opulent and substantial, this gorgeous red offers blackberry jam, dried cherry, vanilla, cocoa and toasted hazelnut characters with warm cake spice notes on the nose. The palate is concentrated and magnificently weighted, and delivers superb fruit richness and velvety mouthfeel, leading to a lingering delectable finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, November 2017

This supercharged blend of the classic Italian grape varieties Primitivo, Nero de Troia and Negroamaro are made in the Appassimento style from the south of Italy. Appassimento style is all the rage at the moment, this involves drying grapes to concentrate the flavour – basically supercharging the wine! 

Food Pairing: This could be the ultimate BBQ wine for summer 2017!
