Deep garnet colored, the 2008 Primitivo gives pronounced notes of spice cake, raisins, figs, warm blueberries and prunes. Very full bodied and richly fruited in the mouth, it is nicely supported with very crisp acid and a medium level of velvety tannins, finishing long and spicy. Drinking now, it should remain good to 2016. Importer: Winebow; www.winebow.com
