Flavour Profile
Puglia offers incredible character and depth, and red wines that are sure to give you a lot of wine for your money, yet even in this context Pillastro Selezione d’Oro stands out from the crowd. It’s the work of award-winning winemaker Angelo Maci, a Puglian local and champion of the region.
Growing up in rural Puglia with his grandfather, Angelo developed a huge love of the land. He trained as a winemaker, then decided his mission was to save the region's ancient vines and winemaking traditions. He wanted farmers to receive proper recompense for the superb quality of their low-yield grapes. For that reason, he set up the Cantine Due Palme, initially with just 15 growers. Today there are over 1000, and it’s been named ‘Italian Winery of the Year’ five times.
This premium edition takes Primitivo and Negroamaro grapes from 50-year-old vines to create an even greater depth of flavour and is aged in French oak barrels, adding layers of spice to this complex, richly fruity red wine. Decant and serve with roast meats or a rich pasta dish.
