Cantele CNTL Primitivo del Salento 2024
Showcasing a striking new minimalist design, the Cantele CNTL Primitivo holds the exact same beautifully crafted red wine that has long been a favourite on our shelves. Sourced entirely from the sun-drenched Torricella area of Salento, the grapes bake in the intense Puglian heat to develop an incredible depth of flavour. To keep the wine perfectly balanced, it rests for approximately six months in oak barrels. This gentle ageing simply softens the edges rather than overpowering the fruit, resulting in a wonderfully smooth, velvety texture in the glass. Pouring a vibrant ruby red, it immediately offers inviting aromas of dark plum, black cherry, and a subtle hint of baking spice. On the palate, it is incredibly soft, bursting with bright raspberry and ripe mulberry flavours. Held together by an excellent natural freshness and well-integrated tannins, this is a fantastic, lively Italian red wine that makes a brilliant partner for a relaxed weekend pizza or a rich, tomato-based pasta.
