Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
This Primitivo di Manduria shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of
garnet red, little transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing
and refined aromas that start with hints of plum, blackberry and black
cherry followed by aromas of dried violet, vanilla, tamarind, tobacco,
licorice, mace, carob and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the
nose, a tannic attack and pleasing roundness, however balanced by alcohol,
full body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of plum,
blackberry and black cherry. Part of this Primitivo ages in barrique.
