12 e Mezzo Primitivo del Salento

A much needed big pour! It’s been a very long week! After an hour decant this wine is so silky smooth and very fruit forward. TGIF!

It’s like chewing on jolly ranchers. 12 e mezzo is the amount of hours of heartburn you will get.

Cherry and Plum jamming to great tunes!

Great bottle for $13 CAD!
