PRIMITIVO NATURALE ’24
$38.00
Lifted and expressive, dominated by red and black fruits. Think of mulberry, black cherry compote and plum skin. Behind this there are light spice of white pepper and a hint of anise mixed with an earthy note. Palate is medium to full-bodied with energy. Fresh with great length, acid carries the palate with a soft fine mouth coating fruit tannin.
