Really enjoyed this. Aromatic sweet fruit but backed nicely by good structure and acidity. Perhaps the first time I’ve enjoyed pineapple notes in a wine. — a year ago

A nice clean Zinfandel, but probably the one grape that we have actually treated better in the new world than the old. This bottle was the most celebrated organic primitivo that I could find publicly available in Puglia.
Smells of sun dried cherries, some meaty scents, black pepper and violets.
Tasty but a bit thin (but nearly 15%!)
Fresh, medium fruity acid, medium-light tannins- probably a better balance than the strong tannin v. Acid that we find here- much less tannic but also length than we see in it's Sonoma County, American counterpart.

This is more serious Primitivo than the Polvanera 14 I tried earlier. More concentration and body with nicely supporting sweet tannins and higher acidity giving the wine enough structure to stand the luscious fruit. This is flat our great red for tasty grilled beef — 3 years ago
