Rooted in the rich heritage of Puglia, the Pajaru estate celebrates the figure of the shepherd, or “Picuraru” in dialect, symbolizing the slow, seasonal, and steadfast labor paralleled in the meticulous care of vineyards to forge exceptional wines. Inspired by the shepherds’ resilience and dedication, Primitivo “PICURARU” was borna majestic deep ruby red wine that unfurls intense aromas of ripe red fruit on the nose, transforming into layered notes of plum, cocoa, leather, and black pepper on the palate. Warm, persistent, and notably tannic, PICURARU matures beautifully, gaining expression over a couple of years. It pairs splendidly with rich legume soups accented with bacon, robust pasta with meat sauce, and aged cheeses, making it a versatile choice for a variety of culinary delights.
