The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
Papale Primitivo comes from Varvaglione 1921, a family-run winery in Puglia, Italy, whose "Papale" label pays homage to the region's papal history and deep-rooted winemaking heritage. Primitivo, genetically related to Zinfandel, thrives in Puglia's warm southern climate, producing rich, generous red wines.
This bottling shows the variety's signature character: ripe dark berry and plum fruit, warm spice notes, and a soft, velvety texture with gentle tannins. It's a full-bodied red with a smooth, lingering finish that reflects the sun-soaked vineyards it comes from.
Enjoy this 750ml bottle alongside grilled sausages, tomato-based pasta, or aged cheeses to bring out its ripe fruit and spice. Shop this Puglian Primitivo online at Habits Bottle Shop for a generous, food-friendly Italian red at a great value.

On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
