Poggio Anima Lilith Primitivo Salento 2023 from Puglia is a bold, dark‑fruited Southern Italian red that brings serious flavour for modest coin, delivering richness, spice and that plush Primitivo charm in a beautifully drinkable style. This Poggio Anima Lilith Primitivo Salento 2023 opens with intense aromas of ripe cherry, plum and blackberry, layered with dark berries, hints of licorice, anise, smoky earth and a little chocolatey richness.

The palate is medium to full‑bodied, bold and velvety, packed with dark plum, blackcurrant and black cherry, supported by crushed raspberry, dried herbs and a touch of smoky oak, all wrapped in supple tannins and a long, spicy, moreish finish. It feels generous and mouth‑filling without tipping into jammy or fat, keeping enough freshness to stay nicely balanced at the table.

Food‑wise, Poggio Anima Lilith Primitivo Salento 2023 is a natural with grilled meats, slow‑cooked lamb shanks, rich beef ragù, barbecued sausages, ribs or a pizza loaded with cured meats and olives; it absolutely loves smoky, charry flavours and tomato‑based sauces. Serve around 16–18°C and enjoy over the next few years while all that dark fruit, spice and plush texture are front and centre.
