Emporium 2015 Appassimento Rosso Salento IGT, Puglia, Italy
Primitivo and Negroamaro are the players in this powerhouse red from southern Italy. Finely grained cherrywood tannins and delicious meaty notes are brightened by plum and spiced cinnamon. The late-harvest drying process results in shriveled grapes, which concentrate aromas and flavors. Armed with great structure, it’s a star for food pairing that overdelivers while maintaining a juicy character. 92
