A bit of spice and dryness up front. Opens up after a bit with dark cherry and chocolate notes.

A very nice dryness here... On the nose, it's black licorice and dried berries... On the palate, those dried berries again, but also baking spice... And the licorice is popping... An above-medium acidity makes this an amazing pairing here with the best olive bowl on the coast!

This is more serious Primitivo than the Polvanera 14 I tried earlier. More concentration and body with nicely supporting sweet tannins and higher acidity giving the wine enough structure to stand the luscious fruit. This is flat our great red for tasty grilled beef
