“Tatu” is the nickname for Angelo, second-born son of Cosimo and Maria Teresa Varvaglione. This sumptuous blend of Primitivo with 10 percent Aglianico bursts with notes of spiced blackberries and blueberries with a core of rich minerality that all open up on a medium-full body palate with tannins that are sandy but not aggressive – a perfect wine for a spicy pizza.
