I don’t rate too many wines a 9.3 but this one deserves it. Cherry pie and vanilla on the nose. Nice fruity tastes of cherry and plum. I love Primitivo and this one definitely didn’t disappoint. The Wine Cellar, Boynton Beach FL

Very drinkable wine. Lots of fruit flavor that lingers, but not for long (unfortunately). Would have preferred longer lasting aftertaste, but in a way the way the wine is currently makes it easy to drink. Would buy again.

Very nice full bodied dry red wine. Flavor lingers with finish , very nice. Had it with a spicy lobster bisque, very nice together.

A fairly robust red wine! A little bit of breathing did it justice. Flavors of plum, oak and pepper.

Normally enjoy primitivo but I’ve definitely had better. Cherry notes a bit too harsh for me.

Extra fruity and heavy on the cherry. Nice with chocolate, but a little sweet and a little thin for my taste.
