"Our vibrant, peppery pasta sauce is robustly spiced with crushed hot chilli flakes, garlic and herbs. This authentic sauce from Rome means “angry” in Italian, connoting its full-bodied spice, yet its heat is tempered by luscious vine-ripened tomatoes and rich, fruity olive oil for a balanced finish. Imported from Italy."-PC Black Label
