Rollover To Zoom
Organically grown Primitivo from Puglia's Salento, aged in cocciopesto (crushed-terracotta) amphorae plus French and American oak. Real Southern Italian intensity in a kosher bottle — the amphora is the hook, the fruit is the reward.
Mood: Amphora, intense, Puglia.
Sommelier
"Cocciopesto amphora aging is the real thing — clay porous enough to soften tannin without adding oak, next to French and American barrels for polish. And the Primitivo fruit is Puglia at full volume."
Tasting Notes
Intense ruby-red. Nose of vanilla, dark chocolate, roasted coffee, whiskey barrel and dried tobacco. The palate is full-bodied and rich with concentrated dark berry, soft tannins, warm spice and a subtle earthy-mineral finish from the amphora. Finish is long, luxurious and gently sweet.
Food Pairing
A serious Yom Tov red — pair with grilled ribeye, lamb chops, or a slow-braised osso buco. Also spectacular with aged hard cheeses, hearty stews, and Motzei Shabbos smoked-meat platters.
