About This Product

Toto Primitivo 2022 is crafted from 100% Primitivo and aged in stainless steel.

Serving Suggestions & Cooking Instructions

Roasted Meats & Game: This wine is “ideal with roasts.” Serve it alongside a herb-crusted roast leg of lamb or stewed venison. The 14% alcohol and structure of the 100% Primitivo grapes stand up beautifully to the richness of game meats.

Rich Pasta Sauces: Pair with a slow-cooked beef shin ragù or a traditional Lasagne alla Bolognese. The “cherry and plum” fruit notes provide a vibrant counterpoint to the savoury, umami depth of tomato-based meat sauces.

The Cheese Board: For a perfect match, choose aged cheeses such as Pecorino Pugliese or a mature Cheddar. The wine’s “violet tones” and warm spice notes complement the salty, nutty profile of hard cheeses.

Antipasto Pairing: Serve a glass alongside Hyde Farm Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Capers and grilled aubergines. The natural sweetness of the Primitivo grape harmonises with the concentrated flavours of Mediterranean preserved vegetables.

Preparation Tip: To allow the “warm spice” aromas to fully develop, pour the wine 20–30 minutes before serving. It is best enjoyed at a slightly cool room temperature of around 16–18°C.
