Pillastro Anniversario 2021

Founded by the legendary Angelo Maci, Cantine Due Palme is a leading cooperative in southern Italy’s Puglia region. In fact, it boasts multiple Winery of the Year awards from Vinitaly and top guide Gambero Rosso. Our customers know Cantine Due Palme for its delicious Pillastro wines—the original Pillastro Primitivo is our #1 southern Italian red of all time. So, naturally, we’re thrilled to introduce this new addition to the range...

To say thanks for your years of support, the Cantine Due Palme team has made this luxurious Pillastro Anniversario wine. Like the original fan favorite, it’s crafted from Primitivo grapes...but with a little extra oomph. A portion of the grapes dried on the vine, imparting intense concentration and richness to the fruit, and part of the wine aged for six months in barrel for an extra dose of spicy complexity.

All the team’s hard work has paid off. Pillastro Anniversario has won 95 points and a double-gold medal from Gilbert & Gaillard judges. They raved: “Pleasant nose combining spice and roasted coffee over a fruit base (bilberries, plums). Velvety, nervy and concentrated on the palate, overflowing with flavor. Leaves a very harmonious impression.”

Pillastro Anniversario will be the perfect wine for a fine meal. Enjoy it alongside classic Italian cuisine or your family’s own treasured recipes. It’s food-friendly enough to pair with a wide range of dishes.

Given the popularity of the original Pillastro Primitivo, we expect this luxurious anniversary edition to sell quickly. Hurry to be among the first to taste it.
