Nardelli 1976 Gold Edition Negroamaro Primitivo Puglia IGP

Two Southern Italian characters in one bottle: Negroamaro and Primitivo from Apulia, the region known for full-bodied red wines with warmth and depth.

Nardelli stands for Apulian wine culture with an eye on international markets. The Gold Edition combines the velvety fruit of the Primitivo with the spicy, slightly bitter character of the Negroamaro – a classic duo from this sunny region.

In the glass, it shows a deep ruby red. On the nose, ripe blackberry, black cherry, and a hint of dried fig. On the palate, it is soft and round, with notes of dark chocolate, leather spice, and a slightly smoky finish. The tannins are ripe and not too edgy – accessible, but not generic.
