2021 Splendido Primitivo

When you think of Italian wine, you tend to think of anything from Tuscany. But don’t sleep on wines from Southern Italy. Straight from Puglia comes Splendido Primitivo, a rich red that’ll stand out on any dinner table. With flavors of dark plum and black cherry wrapped in notes of leather and a touch of tobacco, this full-bodied wine packs a delicious punch. For the best experience, decant and pair with equally hearty dishes. Think grilled lamb chops, a meaty stew, or spicy chili. Or go for a classic Italian pairing and serve it with a slice of spicy sausage pizza. Once you’ve tasted this Primitivo, don’t be shocked if it becomes your new go-to Italian wine.
