The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing luscious notes of ripe red berries and dark cherries that dance on the palate. Tannins are notably firm yet smooth, adding structure and depth without overpowering the fruit. Its well-rounded character is complemented by a dry profile that enhances the overall enjoyment, making it a versatile choice for pairing with a variety of dishes, from hearty pastas to grilled meats.

Puglia

The heel of Italy's "boot," sunny Puglia (the "g" is silent), is famed for its olive oils, almonds and of course, its rich, full-bodied wines. Although dry and intensely hot in the summer, Puglia has coastlines on three sides, providing cool Mediterranean breezes to alleviate the daytime heat. Primitivo (known in the US as Zinfandel) does well here, with other popular red varieties including Sangiovese and Negroamaro. But it is not all about reds in Puglia: the local Fiano grape produces gloriously nutty, tropical-flavored white, while Falanghina makes intensely fruity wines with citrus blossom notes.
