2017 Nicola Chiaromonte Primitivo Riserva

The 2017 Nicola Chiaromonte Primitivo Riserva is a rich and powerful expression of Puglia’s famed Primitivo grape, drawn from old, low-yielding vines. Nicola Chiaromonte, a family-run estate dedicated to organic practices and minimal intervention, crafts this wine to showcase both intensity and elegance. Aromas of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and plum mingle with hints of cocoa, licorice, and warm spice. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with concentrated dark fruit, firm yet polished tannins, and a long, layered finish. Ideal alongside slow-braised meats, hearty pasta dishes, aged cheeses, or grilled lamb.
