Masseria Li Veli 'Orion' Primitivo Salento IGT, 2022

This wine is made of 100% Primitivo (Zinfandel). We'd pair this with rich and spicy dishes like Penne all'Arrabiata, Orecchiete with sausage, or Cioppino, a hearty fisherman's stew. The wine has flavors of ripe dark fruits and spice and is the perfect pairing for a full-flavored dish. Masseria Li Veli is located on an ancient Messapian site dominating the fertile and sunny Salento plain. It was founded by the Marquis Antonio de Viti de Marco (1858-1943), an internationally known Italian economist and university professor, whose ambitious project was to transform the Masseria into a model cellar for the entire South.
