"Herb & spice notes open & close this sleek, medium-bodied red, with light tannins defining the silky flavors of crushed black raspberry, dried fig & smoke." – Wine Spectator

Wines from Puglia (@ Italy's 'boot') have rocketed into Italy's high quality offerings.

Li Veli makes Wine Spectator's 'World's Top 100' wineries at #62 - not bad when you consider there are tens of thousands of wineries worldwide.

Like Zinfandel? Primitivo is apparently either a close relative - or is in fact Zinfandel. Either way, this 'Orion' is a delicious full bodied, balanced & fruity red - like a superb Zinfandel.

Dense purplish red, it is intense on the nose with lots of ripe & fleshy red fruits - fresh raspberries & cherries followed by spicy notes. Full bodied, powerful, & with a balanced acid streak Just great with red meats!
