November calls for indulgence in simple pleasures as the days grow shorter and the evenings cooler. It’s the perfect time for wine lovers to uncork a bottle that brings warmth and comfort. At Terre di San Vito, our collection of organic wines from Puglia, Italy, embodies the flavours and traditions of this storied region. Whether it’s a quiet night by the fire or a festive gathering with friends, our wines promise to elevate your November evenings.

Il Vescovo: A Robust Red for Chilly Evenings

Let’s start with Il Vescovo, a distinguished blend of 70% Malbec and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. The meticulous process behind this wine—ageing in steel barrels for nine months, followed by four months in the bottle—ensures a well-rounded and robust profile. Best served at 16-18°C, Il Vescovo has an alcohol content of 13.5% and is beloved for its deep, full-bodied character.

On the palate, Il Vescovo offers notes of dark berries like blackberries and plums intertwined with delicate hints of spices. These complex flavours make it perfect for rich, hearty dishes such as beef stews, braised lamb, and roasted vegetables. Picture a Sunday roast or a plate of creamy polenta topped with mushrooms; Il Vescovo complements such meals, enhancing the warmth and depth of every bite.

Beyond its versatility at the dinner table, Il Vescovo also shines independently. Its bold profile makes it a wine to savour slowly, allowing the flavours to unfold and develop with each sip. Whether paired with food or enjoyed solo, this wine is a must-have for autumn.

Cantiniere Primitivo: Embracing Puglia’s Signature Grape

Primitivo is synonymous with Puglia, and our Cantiniere Primitivo pays homage to this heritage with every bottle. This wine is 100% Primitivo, an intensely flavoured grape that thrives in the sun-drenched vineyards of Southern Italy. With an alcohol content of 14%, the Cantiniere Primitivo boasts a velvety texture and flavours of ripe cherries, red berries, and a touch of spice.

Perfect for pairing with tomato-based pasta dishes, grilled meats, or aged cheeses, this wine enhances the natural flavours of these dishes. Imagine hosting a dinner party with platters of antipasti featuring prosciutto, pecorino, and olives—paired with Cantiniere Primitivo; the evening takes on a distinctly Mediterranean flair.

Apeneste: A Crisp White for Autumnal Fare

Our Apeneste Sauvignon Blanc offers a refreshing alternative to richer reds for those who gravitate towards white wine. This wine is celebrated for its vibrant acidity and crisp flavours of citrus, green apple, and subtle floral notes. Its alcohol content of 13.5% ensures a light yet flavourful experience.

Apeneste is the perfect companion for lighter proteins like poultry or seafood dishes. Think lemon herb roasted chicken or creamy seafood pasta—Apeneste’s bright acidity cuts through the richness of these meals, balancing and elevating their flavours.

Mosi: A Versatile Rosé for Every Occasion

Finally, our Mosi rosé provides the best of both worlds. Made from 100% Malbec, this wine strikes a delightful balance between fruit-forwardness and crisp acidity. Its light, refreshing profile makes it ideal for pairing with various dishes, from grilled fish to seasonal autumn salads featuring roasted squash and feta.
