Cielo Primasole Primitivo is a rich, medium-bodied red from Puglia, Italy, made from 100% Primitivo grapes, produced by Cielo e Terra, a winery with a long history dating back to 1908.

Deep ruby red color and offers aromas of ripe plums, cherry jam, and tobacco, complemented by subtle hints of cocoa, vanilla, and coffee from 12 months of aging in wooden casks.On the palate, it is velvety and full-bodied, with a fine spiciness, a touch of sweetness, and well-integrated tannins. 

This wine pairs excellently with red meats, game, and hard cheeses. 

What to eat with Cielo Primasole Primitivo .... here at The Cheese and Wine Shop, we recommend; our Pecorino Romano: This salty, sharp Italian sheep's milk cheese is a classic pairing that complements the wine's robust character and Italian origin.

Parmigiano-Reggiano: The nutty, complex flavours and hard texture of Parmesan stand up well to the full body and tannins of the Primitivo.

Cheddar Gorge Cave Aged Cheddar: known for its sharpness and complex caramel notes, creates a symphony of flavours with the wine's dark fruit character.

Our Old Amsterdam: Older, nutty Goudas with a hint of sweetness pair well with the wine's fruitiness and subtle sweetness.

Our Gorgonzola, Colston Bassett and Devon Blue Cheeses, as the rich, velvety texture and strong, piquant flavour of blue cheese can be balanced by the fruitiness and body of the Primitivo, making the wine taste sweeter in comparison.
