Luscious! Several people at our group dinner remarked how smooth it is. The flavors and tannin were all in line for a Primitivo too. Paired with lamb ragu.

Rich baking spice, soft oak, and blackberry make an intriguing and flavorful wine. Solid tannins to hold up to food.

Enjoyed a glass with dinner at a lovely neighborhood Italian restaurant. Full bodied, very good. Will have to find a bottle!

Very nice! Chocolate, cherries, cedar, cassis. Aromatic and with well integrated tannins. Manages to invoke many dark fruit flavors without feeling heavy. Light on its feet and balanced by nice acidity in the form of a cranberry tartness.
