On a wine tasting trip to Santa Barbara, we stopped off at Santa Barbara Winery. One of the oldest, established in 1962, in Santa Barbara. The Primitivo is essentially a Zinfandel, and this one doesn't disappoint. Higher than normal alcohol and great berry fruit flavors. ~$32 | #santabarbarawinery#primitivo#funkzonewine
On the eyes: Bright garnet Good stain, long tears No gas/floc
On the nose: Med+ Acid Med+ Alcohol Stewed Raspberry, Blackberry Slight Barn and Earth
On the tongue: Med Acid High Alcohol Med Tannin Earthy Berry flavor Some Mineralty on the way down Med+ Body Good Complexity
