Why Primitivo loves pumpkin

  • Sweet meets spice: Roast-caramel notes in squash echo Sessantanni’s ripe plum and black cherry.
  • Silky tannins: A gentle frame for creamy soups, gnocchi and cheesy bakes.
  • Comforting depth: Vanilla, cocoa and warm spice embrace mushrooms and roast veg.

Quick & trendy pairings

1) Honey-chili roast pumpkin with feta

Roast at 200 °C for ~25 min, finish with feta & thyme. Serve Sessantanni slightly cool (16–18 °C).

2) Creamy pumpkin-coconut soup

Ginger & garlic base, coconut milk, a squeeze of lime. Toasted seeds on top. Primitivo adds plush warmth.

Fall feed-friendly: Air-fryer pumpkin fries with Za’atar—crisp in minutes, made for a cozy red.
