Flavor Profile
Angelo Maci’s ‘Gold Selection’ Pillastro has quite the awards pedigree, including a gold medal from the American Wine Awards for the previous edition. And now, you can enjoy it in a 1.5-liter magnum (twice the size of a regular bottle).
You’re in for a serious treat, especially if you love RICH, bold reds. One sip of his latest Pillastro Selezione d’Oro and you’ll understand why Angelo’s been named Southern Italian Winemaker of the Year three times by Vinitaly. Handcrafted with chocolatey, old-vine Primitivo grapes sourced from Angelo’s very best sites in Puglia, then given a splash of deep, dark Negroamaro, the wine was barrel aged for extra smoothness and complexity. (Fun fact: Angelo’s 45-year-old vines are so low yielding, it takes the fruit from an entire plant to make just a single bottle of Selezione d’Oro!)
This rich, sun-baked treat comes into its own with hearty and rustic Italian fare. Serve at your next big family dinner—it’s a guaranteed hit, and the magnum bottle means you’ll have plenty of wine on hand.
Word to the wise: just like Angelo’s regular Pillastro, his Selezione d’Oro has a big following—so hurry to guarantee your share.
