Flaio Primitivo Salento 2022

Flaio is produced by Cantine Salvalai from Primitivo grown in the Salento IGT zone — the sun-drenched peninsula at the very tip of Italy’s heel. Puglia is the place to find great Italian wines of exceptional value, and Primitivo is one of the iconic grapes of the region — a variety that accumulates sugar rapidly in the intense southern sun, producing wines that are rich, generous, and full of character.

About This Wine
