Puglia offers “undreamed-of character and potential” (Hugh Johnson) and “reds that give you a lot of wine for your money” (Decanter), yet even in this context Pillastro Selezione d’Oro stands out. Angelo Maci spares no expense in crafting it, and consequently, among our customers, he has won admirers by the thousand. There are three keys to its success. The winery itself, the Cantine Due Palme, has been ‘Winery of the Year’ for three years in succession, so it is top notch. The grapes, from 50 year old vines, are simply the best for miles around. And finally, it was aged in French oak to create dense, full bodied flavours of immense complexity and quality. This impressive magnum will make a handsome centrepiece at your next dinner party.
