The 2011 Primitivo di Manduria Zinfandel plays up the fact that Primitivo and California's Zinfandel are genetic siblings. Much like the American interpretation of the grape, this wine boasts full richness and a soft, yielding texture that is accented by oak spice and dark fruit flavors. Zinfandel ages in both botte grande and stainless steel to maintain the integrity of it black fruit flavors. This is a nicely made wine with a great sense of varietal pureness.

Vibrant, with fresh acidity backing the gamy cherry and raspberry notes, revealing spicy peppercorn, tar and chalk. Drink now. 10,000 cases made.??–NW??Region: Italy / South / Puglia / Primitivo di Manduria Select to Add
