Big primitivo from Manduria grown on sandy soil! Smells almost maderized as it goes from jammy plum and raspberry to prickly pear and jalepeño jam with a twisted soy brininess emanating cedar and ripe heat! Full-bodied sasparilla reduction with a blanket of dried blackberry soaked in cola and then reduced. Over-browned coffee cake comes to mind, if the burnt sugars manifested drily with a cinnamon stick and plum reduction indelibility. The Mandurian candied-date! #primitivo #manduria #italianwines #Dunico #felline #Recemi #fruitbomb

Deep, intense dark chocolate, dark plum, candied black berries, super thick rose pedal aroma, candied date, vanilla, black pepper note. Full body, med plus acid, intense fruit comes on the first, moderate tannin, medium plus finish, yummy deliciousness and delicate texture with complex, exotic licorice finish. great example of soft, delicate style of primitivo from Manduria. Drunk with kebab, fantastic primitivo that can paired with BBQ, roasted, grilled venison. Wow 15.5% abv
