Deep ruby; pronounced intensity aromas of vinyl, tar, earth, and leather upon pouring; more fruit as it opens up, blackberry, black plum, cocoa; dry, medium acid, high tannins, medium alcohol, full, medium plus intensity flavors consistent with aromas; medium plus finish, this is a BIG wine, very complex and concentrated — 4 years ago

This Primitivo shows a medium-dark tint in the glass and a nose that is all fruit, all the time. Cherry aromas are joined by notes of plum and cassis, with just a hint of oak. After it sits for a bit, a whiff of smoke gathers at the top of the glass. The palate shows a lot of earthiness and a chalky quality, which we can chalk up to minerality. There is a lengthy finish that turns slightly tart on the fade. I would love to have this wine with some nice Italian sausages and pasta, or a meatball sub.

You be of the most fantastic wines from Napa Valley and Beckstoffer To Kalon I have had especially at the price point. Rich, Napa cab sauv but totally available to the full palate — 5 years ago

It has a funk at the end that I haven’t decided if I like it or not. But still, get red wine. — 7 years ago

Really quite nice and very different. Slightly different, slightly oaked, but not in a way that is bad at all. A bit orange - sees some skin contact - mouth filling, medium acid. Very nice. — 6 years ago

This is an excellent Fino for only $6. Not as complex as a Lustau but that is three or four time the cost. Superb value for a crisp, slightly salty Fino. Trader Joe’s. Worth a look if you like a sharp crisp aperitif sherry to go with nuts, olives, etc. — 5 years ago

Mmmmm this is a porch pounder! Light lemon/lime with nice mineral and salt. I would call it “round” not crisp. Delish.
