Fresh & light in style, Canteles Primitivo is one of Cantel's most versatile wines at the dinner table: From pizza to pastas topped with meat sauce, baked pastas, & even some lighter entres, the juicy fruit of this wine pairs wonderfully with a wide variety of foods
- Italian & international.
But its lithe character in the glass also makes for a great pairing for seafood dishes. In fact, its one of Lecces favorites to pair with the excellent fish & seafood they serve there.
Colour: Ruby red with delicate garnet undertones.
Nose: The minerality of the nose creates a delicate combination of morello & sour cherry & prune. Floral & spicy notes follow in a superbly persistent finish.
Palate: Gentle tannins, impressive acidity combine with the classic delicacy & alcoholic content of Primitivo in the flavors of this once forceful but now elegant & noble wine.
