D'Addario Primitivo Puglia Prete Brigante 2022

D'Addario Primitivo Puglia Prete Brigante 2022 is a characterful southern Italian red that showcases the generous, sun-ripened style Primitivo is loved for. From Puglia’s warm Adriatic-influenced vineyards, it offers immediate appeal with ripe fruit, soft texture, and a distinctly regional warmth that makes it both easy to enjoy and unmistakably Italian.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a deep ruby color with youthful purple reflections. The nose is typically plush and expressive, with aromas of ripe blackberry, plum, dark cherry, and hints of Mediterranean herbs, often complemented by subtle spice and a touch of warmth. On the palate, it is usually full-bodied and round, with juicy dark fruit, supple tannins, and a smooth, approachable finish. Primitivo from Puglia is known for its generous style rather than strict austerity, which makes this wine enjoyable on release, though it can also hold its appeal over the short to medium term.

Production
Produced in Puglia, where hot days, cooling breezes, and well-suited vineyard sites help Primitivo achieve full ripeness, this wine reflects the region’s naturally generous fruit profile. Harvesting is typically carried out once the grapes have reached optimal maturity, and vinification is designed to preserve ripe aromas and create a smooth, fruit-forward style with a balanced structure.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs well with grilled meats, roast lamb, pasta with rich tomato sauces, barbecue dishes, and aged hard cheeses. Serve it at around 16-18°C, and decanting for 20-30 minutes can help open up the aromas and soften the wine’s youthful structure.

Producer
D'Addario is a Puglia-based producer associated with the southern Italian tradition of expressive, ripe red wines that highlight local grape varieties. With a focus on regional identity and approachable quality, the producer contributes to the growing reputation of Apulia as one of Italy’s most compelling areas for robust, fruit-driven wines.
