Tasting Notes
This Italian Primitivo is a textbook example of bold, expressive winemaking. Juicy and jammy, it offers layers of dark fruit, perfectly balancing smooth richness with a touch of savory intrigue. The aromas of ripe plum, dried cranberry, and a hint of white sage are complemented by subtle notes of white pepper and coffee. On the palate, jammy dark fruit flavors of plum and cranberry take center stage, with a touch of herbaceous savoriness that adds depth. The wine finishes smooth and lingering, leaving an impression that refuses to quit.
