Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
A sun-drenched southern Italian blend marrying Cabernet Sauvignon's structure with the ripe, jammy character of Primitivo (Zinfandel), producing a generous, fruit-forward red with a warm, slightly rustic edge. Expect blackberry and dried fig at the core, underpinned by tobacco and leather notes from the Puglian terroir. It's an approachable, food-friendly wine best enjoyed with hearty meat dishes or bold cheeses.
Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.
