The Wine
It’s no coincidence Pillastro is one of our bestselling Italian reds – customers love all that richness, warmth and bold, ripe fruit. It comes from Puglia, in Italy’s deep south, best known for big, smoky wines made from prized local varieties Primitivo and Negroamaro. This 2015 is from Angelo Maci, a leading figure in the quality revolution of the last two decades, and whose cellar Cantine Due Palme was twice named ‘Winery of the Year’. Angelo made this wine purely from famously powerful Primitivo, before ageing it gently in oak for delicious, subtle notes of spice and vanilla. The perfect centrepiece to a large family meal, this impressive 1.5 litre magnum is a tasty treat with hearty casseroles, rich pasta dishes or garlic roasted lamb.
