Southern Italy's Primitivo grape has a track record for producing ripe, fruity, crowd-pleasing reds, which is exactly what we have here – bags of soft, ripe red cherry fruit, with a generous lick of vanilla oak. Medium-bodied, this would be great with pizza, but would work equally well on its own in a party setting. Part of Lidl's core range.
