Primitivo is a red grape variety primarily grown in the Puglia region of Italy, where it produces full-bodied wines with high tannins and flavors of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, along with notes of spice and chocolate. The ABV for Primitivo wines typically ranges from 13.5-15%. Its popularity is due to its ability to produce rich, flavorful wines that are both approachable and versatile.
The warm, Mediterranean climate and varied soils of Puglia provide ideal conditions for Primitivo, allowing the grape to develop its characteristic depth and intensity. Primitivo is often used to produce both youthful, vibrant wines and more structured, age-worthy versions. Its adaptability and consistent quality have made it a favorite among winemakers and consumers, ensuring its place as a staple of Italian viticulture and a popular choice for everyday drinking and special occasions alike.
