History
Produced from the local Primitivo variety cultivated in the Salento peninsula of the Puglia region, southern Italy. Grapes are sourced from selected vineyards between 20 and 60 years old and hand harvested in early September. Fermentation took place at 28 to 30C with daily pumping over and 10 days contact with the skins. After malolactic fermentation the wine was matured for 6 months in large Slavonian oak casks before bottling.

Nice and easy drinking
Received as a substitute and was a little nervous when I saw the reviews but I just couldnt knock it for the price. Theres lots of tannin so its a little sharp but Id expect that in a primitivo.

Avoid
Up till now, I'd have said I'd never found a Primitivo I didn't like. That ship had sailed now: this is almost undrinkable. Might be OK to top up your car battery with.

Not organic.
Tastes alright... Not labelled as organic though - shouldn't be tagged as such.

Have I mistakenly brought red wine vinegar?
Tastes like a cheap pub wine from the early 1990s
