This October, we’re taking Primo on the road for four nights of pizza, wine and a question we need your help settling:

Italy or Australia?

We’ll be pouring our newest Italian-made Primo & Co wines alongside some of our McLaren Vale Primo Estate favourites.

Same winemaking family. Two countries. Very different ideas about wine.

And because arguing about wine is always better over pizza, we’re taking over four of our favourite Italian restaurants around Australia for the occasion:

Brisbane - Tuesday 13 October, 6:30pm

Adelaide - Tuesday 20 October, 6:00pm

Melbourne - Thursday 22 October, 6:30pm

I’ll be there at each night, telling a few stories and doing my best to remain impartial.

Then we’ll put the reds head-to-head:

McLaren Vale Il Briccone vs Italian-made The Tuscan.

At the end of the night, everyone gets a vote: Italy or Australia?

There will be antipasti. There will be plenty of pizza. There will be six Primo wines.

And there will be a winner.

Hope to see you there!
