Il Brutto Negroamaro Primitivo 2023
If it weren’t for Angelo Maci, many of the last remaining century-old vines in Puglia would have been uprooted by now. But Angelo turns their tiny quantities of dark, spicy grapes into a very special red of remarkable depth and satisfying richness.

The vines’ twisted trunks may be ugly (‘brutto’) to outsiders, but they’re things of beauty to those in the know.
