A warm, richly flavoured red with aromas of plums, dried fruits and brown spices. On the palate it's generous with good concentration of ripe plum and black cherry fruit and hints of dried figs, liquorice and dark chocolate. All balanced by fresh acidity.

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 Slovenian oak casks before bottling.

Drink with grilled meats or pasta dishes with meat or spicy sauces.

A dependable, robust red wine. Complements red meat and strong sauces. Also more that capable of being drunk outside a meal.

This is an easy everyday drinking Primitivo, not quite as full bodied as others. Great for a sunny afternoon on the deck with your favorite platter

Thought this wine was one of the worst I have bought. No fruit, poor taste, etc. My partner worked in the wine industry for many years and was the first female rep. for Montana. She agreed with my assaessment so I'll just have to waste it and poor it down the sink.
