Calling all Italian wine lovers! Want to try something full-bodied and fantastic? Primitivo is Italian for Zinfandel, and nowhere does the Mediterranean climate craft a rich, full-bodied version than in the region of Puglia. Located at the heel of the boot, Southern Italy’s sun shines through a ruby red wine with full flavors of ripe red fruits and a hint of spice. After being reduced to nothing but a blending grape, Primitivo has seen a huge uptick in recent years as studies have shown that Primtivo is identical to California’s powerhouse. It's become so popular, both the 2010 & 2013 vintages of the Imperio Primitivo were listed in The Wine Spectator as a Top 100 selection. While those wines as long gone, the 2022 vintage is amazing for the price.

Luca Maroni: 98 Points

"A dense, essential cream of blackberry jam of the nose, with spices of oak sweetly glazed with superfine purity and measure. On the palate, its majestic tannins are revealed, the imposing palate is structured, with the persuasiveness of the aroma that shines very harmoniously and which persists with an echo of wonderful expressive sweetness." Luca Maroni, 98 Points
