Tasting Notes

What Feudi di San Gregorio's Puglia Primitivo tastes like

A Primitivo made in steel, not oak, from red mineral soils between Brindisi and Taranto. Expect raspberry and plum jam, cinnamon and soft tannins at 13% alcohol.

Acidity Soft / Crisp
Nose

Raspberry and plum jam lead, with a sweet dusting of cinnamon. There is a little clove behind the fruit. No oak sits on top of it. The wine spends six months in steel and six in bottle, so the Primitivo fruit stays bright.

CherryCherry
PlumPlum
RaspberryRaspberry
StrawberryStrawberry
CinnamonCinnamon
Palate

Full and velvety, but at 13% alcohol it is lighter than most Primitivo from Puglia. The tannins are soft and round. A gentle saltiness comes through from the red, mineral soils between Brindisi and Taranto. Acidity of about 6 grams a litre keeps the jammy fruit fresh.

Finish

Warm and fruity, of medium length. Ripe plum and a touch of spice linger, not oak.

Overall

An easy, honest Primitivo from a Campania house better known for Taurasi and Fiano. Drink it young, within four years of the harvest, with grilled meat or a weeknight pizza.

Wine fit score

How the Puglia Primitivo scores on the Italian Wine Fit Score

A low price, soft tannins and no oak push the value, beginner and everyday scores up. Cellar and occasion scores stay low: this is a midweek bottle, not a special one.

Best value 8.8/10

At £11.00 for the 2025 it sits well under the typical UK price for a Puglia IGT Primitivo, with a known Campania name on the label.

Best everyday bottle 8.8/10

Priced at £11.00 to £14.50, ready on release and happy with pizza or a barbecue, this is a midweek bottle.

Best intro to this style 8.6/10

Jammy raspberry and plum fruit, soft tannins and no oak make this an easy first Primitivo at a low price.

Best with food 7.8/10

Soft tannins and fresh acidity at 13% alcohol suit grilled meat, tomato pasta and aged cheese; it struggles only with heat and delicate fish.

Best for an occasion 3.2/10

A simple Puglia IGT red, not a bottle for a celebration; the producer's Taurasi is the one to bring to a special dinner.

Best for cellar 2.8/10

An entry-level IGT aged only in steel; drink within four years of the harvest, with 2029 as the outer limit for the 2024.

Scoring is rule-based and deterministic. The model and weightings are documented in our Wine Fit Score methodology.

The disciplinare, the place, the label

Why a Campania house makes a Puglia Primitivo

Feudi di San Gregorio, founded in 1986 at Sorbo Serpico in Irpinia, makes this wine from Primitivo grown in the provinces of Brindisi and Taranto, far from its home vineyards. It is a simple IGT red next to the house's Taurasi.

01

DOC, DOCG, IGT: what the badges mean

Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.

Puglia is in the IGT tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.

02

The denomination rules, in detail

  • Allowed grapes. 57 varieties listed in the disciplinare
  • Yield ceiling. 26.0 tonnes per hectare
  • Tasting panel. No mandatory pre-release tasting
03

Region and area context

Puglia IGT is the region-wide label, so the grapes can come from anywhere in Puglia.

Mostly cost down
Drivers
2 up / 3 down
Main factor
UK duty and VAT inside the £11.00 price
  1. 01

    UK duty and VAT inside the £11.00 price

    Cost up

    At 13% alcohol, duty on a 75 cl bottle is 0.75 litres x 13% x £30.62, about £2.99, and VAT is a sixth of the shelf price. Of the £11.00 bottle, about £4.82 is tax.

  2. 02

    Six months in steel tanks, no oak

    Cost down

    The wine ferments and ages in stainless steel for six months, then six in bottle. No barrels to buy and no long cellar time keep the cost of making it low.

  3. 03

    Puglia Primitivo, not Irpinia Aglianico

    Cost down

    The grapes grow in the provinces of Brindisi and Taranto, not in the house's own Irpinia vineyards. Primitivo from the wide Puglia IGT zone is plentiful, and that keeps the grape cost down.

  4. 04

    Puglia IGT label, not Primitivo di Manduria DOC

    Cost down

    The wider IGT Puglia label lets the house blend fruit from across the two provinces at higher yields than the Manduria DOC allows, which keeps the grape cost down.

  5. 05

    A known Campania name on the label

    Cost up

    Feudi di San Gregorio makes around 3.2 million bottles a year and has a strong name for Taurasi and Fiano. That name adds a little over an anonymous Puglia bottle at the same quality.

01

UK duty and VAT inside the £11.00 price

Cost up

At 13% alcohol, duty on a 75 cl bottle is 0.75 litres x 13% x £30.62, about £2.99, and VAT is a sixth of the shelf price. Of the £11.00 bottle, about £4.82 is tax.

Food Pairing

Soft tannin, jammy fruit: food for this Primitivo

The soft tannins and 13% alcohol make this a wine for grilled meat, tomato pasta and aged cheese such as caciocavallo. Chilli heat is the one thing to avoid.

Body matching Strong match

Grilled and barbecued meat

Full, velvety fruit at 13% alcohol matches the weight of grilled meat without fighting it. Soft tannins mean the wine does not turn hard against the char. Grilled red meat is its natural home.

Try with: Lamb chops · Ribeye steak · Pulled pork · Roast pork · More pairings →

Aromatic bridge Strong match

Tomato-led pasta and pizza

Plum jam and cinnamon on the nose echo cooked tomato and sweet spice in a ragù. The acidity, about 6 grams a litre, is enough to stand up to the sauce. This is the wine's natural weeknight role.

Try with: Pizza Margherita · Pizza Diavola · Ragu alla bolognese · Agnello Ragu Lucano · More pairings →

Fat cutting Good match

Aged southern cheeses

The gentle saltiness from the red Puglia soils and the fresh acidity cut through the fat of aged cheese. Caciocavallo, the local cheese, is the natural match. Pecorino and a mixed board work the same way.

Try with: Caciocavallo farcito · Pecorino sardo e pan carasau · Cheese board · Strong cheddar cheese

Tannin softening Good match

Slow-cooked lamb

Round, ripe tannins soften further against slow-cooked lamb and its fat. The jammy fruit sits well next to the sweetness of long-braised meat. Keep the seasoning simple so the wine's spice shows.

Try with: Lamb shank · Leg of lamb · Rack of lamb · Roast Lamb with Mint Sauce · More pairings →

Avoid Clash

Hot chilli dishes

Chilli heat makes the 13% alcohol feel hotter and strips the soft fruit. The wine has no bitterness or high acidity to reset the palate. Save it for mild, savoury food.

Skip with: Crispy chilli beef · Lamb bhuna · Szechuan beef · Lamb seekh kebab · Pairing guide →

Drinking + cellar

Not a cellar wine

This Primitivo is aged only in steel and released young. Drink the 2024 by 2029 and the 2025 within four years of the harvest; there is nothing to gain from keeping it longer.

Drinking window
2026 → 2029

Best in the years above; holds without falling over either side.

Decanting
1 hour

A short splash decant softens the first-pour edge and opens the aromatics.

Serving temperature
16-18°C

Aim for the cooler end on a warm day; warmer end opens up more aromatics.

Cellar potential

An entry-level IGT aged only in steel; drink within four years of the harvest, with 2029 as the outer limit for the 2024.

Common Questions

No. This bottle carries the wider Puglia IGT label and is sold under the name Puglia Primitivo. Feudi di San Gregorio also sells a Primitivo di Manduria DOC, a wine from the narrower Manduria zone, which has its own page on this site.

Raspberry and plum jam with a touch of cinnamon, then a full, velvety palate with soft tannins and a gentle saltiness. It is aged in steel, not oak, so the fruit stays bright. At 13% alcohol it is lighter than most Puglia Primitivo.

The 2024 is listed at 13% alcohol. That is low for Primitivo from Puglia, where 14% to 15% is common, and it is one reason the wine feels soft and easy rather than heavy.

Serve it a little below room temperature, around 16 to 18 degrees. It is made to drink young: finish the 2024 by 2029 and the 2025 within four years of the harvest. It does not need decanting, though an hour open does no harm.

XtraWine is the one UK shop we track that sells it, with the 2024 at £14.50 and the 2025 at £11.00 at the last check. With a single seller there is no price to compare between shops, so the vintage is the only choice to make.

The grapes are grown in Puglia, in the provinces of Brindisi and Taranto around Manduria, on red soils rich in minerals. The producer, Feudi di San Gregorio, is based at Sorbo Serpico in Irpinia, Campania, and is best known for Taurasi, Fiano and Greco.
