Duca Petraccone Primitivo 2005 RED Italy

Heartwarmingly rich Duca Petraccone - our greatest ever Italian discovery - is packed with black fruit flavours ... plus the quality assurance of three awards including a coveted Gold. We couldn't wait to taste Duca Petraccone when Senior Buyer Thomas Woolrych declared this his best find yet. After all level-headed Thomas is not one for hyperbole and his many other Italian finds would take some beating ... But he's right this trumps the lot! It's pure Primitivo - "a hero in southern Italy" The Sunday Times - and comes from the Collucis family winemakers in Martina Franca for generations. "Deep ruby colour and powerful aromas of spiced dark fruit. The grapes of old vines (70 years-plus!) gives mouthfilling blackberry richness and ripe food-friendly tannins. Superb with steak or hearty casseroles."
