Mauro Alberello Primitivo 2015, Puglia I.G.T., Italy: Savoury and sweet with black fruit flavours. Alberello means "bush vine" and is a traditional vine training method in Italy. Juicy and full-bodied with lots of acidity on the palate of this Italian red wine made from Primitivo grapes (aka Zinfandel). Black raspberry and berry. Pair with meat lovers' pizza.
