Salento Primitivo

Medium body and dark berry fruits. Thick and jammy without the residual sugar of say Lodi Zins. Soft tannins, stainless aging. Nice everyday pizza, pasta, bbq and burger wine.

Medium bodied but jammy. Blackberry and other dark fruits permeate. A little chocolate and vanilla. There’s an underlying layer of greener flavors too, some grass and herbs. It’s not sweet like a Cali zin, but not intensely structured either.

Very nice Puglia Primitivo wine. 2015 in 2019. Went down easily with or without food.

Great medium to full bodied. Berry forward with a velvety finish. Drank at Arezzo

From the Brew Shop

So juicy and earthy

Solid Primitivio

2015 vintage

So smooth it’s boring and wimpy. Off-putting metallic scent on the nose even after it had been opened for a couple of hours. Nope nope nope. $14 @ Houston WIne Merchant

Tasted this wine at Mascalzone restaurant. The italian waitress offered me a taste saying it was her favorite wine. I found it to be pleasant, not as light as a Pinot but not as intense as a Cabernet. K liked it also.
