The Passitivo Primitivo Appassimento 750ml 14.5% (2022, Italy) ๐Ÿท is a rich and full-bodied red wine crafted in Puglia, the heart of Southern Italy. Produced with the ancient Appassimento method, in which grapes are partially dried before vinification, this wine delivers remarkable intensity, concentration, and smoothness.


In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-red color with garnet reflections โœจ. The bouquet is generous and layered, offering aromas of ripe black cherries ๐Ÿ’, plums, dried figs, and raisins, enriched by notes of vanilla, sweet spices, cocoa, and a hint of tobacco. On the palate, it is velvety and full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a perfect balance between natural sweetness and freshness. The finish is long and lingering, leaving traces of dried fruit and spice.


At 14.5% ABV, Passitivo Primitivo Appassimento pairs beautifully with roasted meats ๐Ÿ–, pasta with rich ragรน ๐Ÿ, barbecue, game ๐ŸฆŒ, and aged cheeses ๐Ÿง€. It also makes a perfect meditation wine to be enjoyed on its own. A true testament to Pugliaโ€™s winemaking tradition, combining power, elegance, and approachability.
