I'm looking for a recommendation on a decent Primitivo at around £10 a bottle - preferably Manduria and around 14.5%. Looking to buy a case to replenish the rack. No issues with a supermarket wine.

I'm down to my last bottle of this - quite nice but come to the conclusion it's not quite worth the price

This is for a day to day decent glugger to go with Pizza and Bolognaise, ..I need to protect my Amarone supplies smile

Not Manduria and not £10,- Sorry but this is one of our preferred primitivo, was on offer at £10 50p a few weeks back so maybe try one see if it suits

If you are willing to spend a little more I’ve found this online for £16 a bottle a few times. Probably my favourite.

Two robust Italian reds from co-op that are negroamaro, and pair well with hearty dishes:

Although this chianti is extremely versatile and gluggable:
