Very deep red in colour turning almost purplish. The nose reveals a rich perfume of plum, black cherry and also spices as ginger and vanilla. On the palate it is full bodied and velvety and well balanced. Enjoy with grilled meats, baked pasta or pasta with hearty sauces, and ripe cheeses.
90 Wine Enthusiast A mix of fresh and dried blackberry and dark cherry tones is standard for Primitivo di Manduria, with heady doses of anise, orange and crushed herbs lending depth. The medium-bodied palate shows plush fruit tones matched by a firm grip of velvety tannins and fresh acidity for lasting support.
