Primitivo di Manduria

At Willos Italian Night on Friday. No notes. More a party than a tasting. These Primitivos appeal to many Australian palates because of their size and ripeness. — 9 years ago

LXXIV Antichi Vini Pugliesi Primitivo di Manduria

This is an amazing wine and it is one of my favorite ones to bring to dinners. It is robust tannic fairly big and opens very quickly. As a cousin to the zinfandel it shows as it is extremely drinkable despite it's large tannic quality. Elements of black fruit and pepper remind me of both the zinfandel and the Shiraz. Anyone familiar Shirah from the Rhone Valley should definitely give this one a try. The only thing I will say is that I enjoy it with friends and less you can finish the bottle by yourself. It dies fairly quickly. — 9 years ago

Villa Santera Primitivo di Manduria 2014

2014v. Medium ruby color. Light aroma of red cherries. On the palette, there's plum and red cherry, a little ginger spice, and a light oak finish. Tannins fill the checks and front of the mouth, and are chewy not grippy. Good acidity. A well balanced primitivo whose fruit flavors are not overripe. I could imagine this wine would be an excellent pair with tomato sauce pastas, pork, lighter grilled meats, or a meat and cheese platter. Give it at least 30-45min to breathe. 14.5% ABV. — 8 years ago

Primitivo di Manduria 2010

Wow, what a deal at < $20 / bottle
Wine spectator says
#69 of top 100 of 2014.
A burly, brambly red, underscored by tarry smoke and underbrush notes, offering flavors of blackberry coulis, herb-marinated black olive, grilled mushroom and ground spice. This shows muscle that recommends it to short-term cellaring, made accessible by integration and balance. Drink now through 2024. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.
