Nero di troia puglia aldi review năm 2024

This is a comparatively unusual southern Italian red, given the presence of one third of Nero di Troia alongside the more widely planted Primitivo and Negroamaro in the blend. It’s also quite light by the toothsome standards of some of the region’s high octane reds, but certainly not lacking in flavour. Plum and damson fruit are underpinned by sweet toasty oak and a refreshing, peppery finish.

An absolute bargain of a wine, with soft, smooth blackberry fruit, a dusting of wild herbs and a warming, silky finish. Goes with any mid-week supper.
