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 2014 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 Primitivo, which produces rich, powerful reds with plenty of ripe fruit. A period of oak ageing has infused the wine’s generous plum and damson character with notes of spice and vanilla. Enjoy with hearty casseroles, pasta with a rich tomato sauce or garlic roasted lamb.
"Such a lovely wine. Very easy drinking, just so versatile"
