I Muri Primitivo Puglia IGP

This is Farnese’s venture in Puglia (they are also responsible for Gran Sasso, Zabù, Vesevo, Tufarello and others). The wines are made at two wineries in the province of Taranto on the western flank of Salento. The style of the wines – fresh whites, soft and generous reds – will be familiar to those who buy their other wines, as winemaker Filippo Baccalaro is the driving force behind this label. Filippo, a native of Piemonte, has been working in Puglia for almost two decades. He was attracted by the rich, ripe flavours of the fruit, and has the potential to capture these flavours with minimal use of technology and a lot of know-how.

Tasting notes:
AROMA : This wine has red berry fruit perfumes, ripe plums and blackberry jam with a hint of spice.
PALATE : Velvety tannins accompany the medium to full-bodied, strong body with a lot of melting and warmth.
PAIRING : Excellent with rich first courses and red meat, also goes well with game and medium-seasoned cheeses.
