Very nice Primitivo from the Puglia/Salento region. Dark ruby color. Paires wonderfully with Southern Italian food, but will go well with a variety of foods. Drank November 2025

Heavy bottle and long cork, developed more structure as it opened up. We should have decanted. Cheers.

Dark garnet color with very nice aromas of dried black fruits, tobacco, mint leaf on the nose. Full-bodied which followed by subtle taste of raisin, dark chocolate, and light touch of sweet herbs on the palate. Strong texture, chewy mouthfeel, soft tannins, but a bit short on the finish. Delicious and considered very good wine under Bt1,000.

Altemura sasseo... lovely aroma, hint of raisin in flavor; could use a touch more complexity
