Palamà 2006 Albarossa Primitivo (Salento)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $18
Here’s a Primitivo from the Salento area of Puglia that doesn’t taste as jammy or overripe as many other wines in this category. Spicy tones give the wine more depth and the background fruit layers are bright and fresh.  — M.L.  (3/1/2009)

This luminous white blend of Verdeca and Malvasia Bianca opens with a pretty golden color and segues to aromas of peach, apricot, yellow rose and honey. The wine is silky and smooth with crisp acidity on the close.  — M.L.  (3/1/2009)

Palamà 2011 Arcangelo Primitivo (Salento)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $15
Huge black-fruit intensity rushes to the nose and gives this wine a sun-drenched, jammy feel that is soft, but not necessarily sweet. In fact, this ripe Primitivo shows balance and a touch of refreshing acidity.  — M.L.  (3/1/2013)

This blend of Negroamaro, Malvasia Nera, Montepulciano and Primitivo sees no oak aging but tastes rich and soft nonetheless. You’ll get aromas of blueberry jam, cherry fruit and drying mineral. It’s a crisp and clean wine with bright fruit flavors.  — M.L.  (3/1/2009)

Palamà 2010 Arcangelo Red (Salice Salentino)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $15
The traditional formula for Salice Salentino red wines is based on Negroamaro, with a smaller percentage of Malvasia Nera. This pretty expression shows notes of bright fruit, sour cherry, white almond and a touch of tangy sweetness on the finish.  — M.L.  (3/1/2013)

Palamà 2006 Albarossa Red (Salice Salentino)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $16
This is a jammy, chewy wine with sweet fruit flavors of mature cherry, strawberry and raspberry marmalade. A 80-20 blend of Negroamaro and Malvasia Nera, the wine is representative of the very fruit-forward and sun-drenched style of Puglia.  — M.L.  (3/1/2009)

Palamà 2007 Albarossa Martina White (Puglia)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $14
Sweet aromas of butterscotch candy, vanilla bean and caramel characterize the nose of this 80-20 blend of Verdeca and Bianco d’Alessano. But the wine also has less attractive notes of paint thinner or acetone in the background.  — M.L.  (3/1/2009)
