Remarkable showing... plenty of fruit and life left in this unassuming zinfandel. Bright acid, red fruit... bricking in both color and flavor shows its age but it's very well integrated.

Wines from Castoro are consistently very good. This Primitivo has an earthiness that I really very much enjoy. Lots of fruit balanced with the earthiness. One doesn't really notice the 15.2% alcohol which is typical of Zin/Primitivo. Fantastic.
