Saturday, June 13, 2015 - Who poured Primitivo di Manduria in my Cabernet? That's what this wine tastes like - serious carafage does it a lot of good, don't be fooled by the oxidative chestnut aromas on the nose, there is a lot of red cherry and a fair bit of cassis and christmas spices underneath. On the palate it is dense and sweet (!) again there is cherries and cassis with cardamom and black pepper aromas intertwined, very rounded and long. A wine to like, although I guess it will evolve into something more serious over the next decade.
