Intense red wine produced exclusively with Primitivo grapes, with hints of black currant and blackberry on the nose and a mix of prunes in syrup, wild berries, chocolate and vanilla on the palate. The well-orchestrated tannic texture allows this fruit explosion to persist for a long time in the finish.
