Vintage 2011 - this is the third time I taste this wine and damned... I find it difficult to recognise. A beautiful eaux de vie smell, sweet in taste, a warm wine. Perhaps I must drink more #primitivo — 8 years ago
Rich blackberry & blueberry jam aroma with a medium heavy body and nice mouthfeel. It finishes off with assertive tannins yet with a sort of flat finish. It's just an OK #primitivo. — 9 years ago
Must be hard to be a producer in beleaguered Puglia. Oceans of IGT's and bulk wines everywhere!
Here's an attempt that I've seen before: Primitivo-based blends made with the appassimento method. Without any doubt looking to differentiate your product in an ocean of cheap mediocrity. Do they make it?
Uhmm, no doubt they mask the local character but the results are not bad. Would I drink it? No, but I don't see why others wouldn't, considering the attractive retail price.

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 — 9 years ago

Good little #Primitivo #wine. Balanced throughout. Wishing the depth and finish lasted.
Smooth wild berry, easy acidity and mold tannin.
Had with jalepeno flank steak and it held up nicely. — 10 years ago

Vintage 2016 - This wine is what my wife calls ‘friendly’, a nice smell with sweet cherries, red fruit, a rich and sultry smell. Very smooth wine with a nice mineral touch. #primitivo #zinfandel #puglia — 8 years ago

A big style, built for rustic fare! Raspberry reduction, cinnamon, vanilla, anise, cedar and blackberries. Medium heavy mouthfeel exhibiting firm tannins and relatively dry. Mocha-raspberry, vanilla tobacco, lingonberry, and a light, dry mint on a dark and rich offering! Cinghuale anyone? #Puglia #Manduria #primitivo #negroamaro #bbqwine #italianwines #rosso #blacknwild — 9 years ago
