PILUNA Primitivo Salento IGT

full-bodied, intense, spicy

Pilùna, named after ancient tufa containers, is a Primitivo IGT Salento that stands out for its depth and complexity. The name "primitivo" highlights its status as the first red grape variety to be ready for harvest. This wine, aged partially in wood and partially in steel, boasts a dark red-purple color and an inviting bouquet of ripe red fruits, black cherry jam, floral hints, and spices like pepper and vanilla. On the palate, it is smooth and warm, with well-integrated tannins and a persistent finish of red fruit jam and licorice. Perfect with lamb chops, roasted or braised red meats, and hearty pasta dishes, Pilùna is ideal for those seeking a rich and structured wine.
