Sweet oak aromas of vanilla, caramel, mocha and clove precede a full-bodied wine. Supple in attack, it is round with similar oaky flavours on the palate complemented by black treacle, red cherries and coffee. Primitivo grown on traditional bush vines was picked in early September, 2020. This has been blended with Sangiovese and Merlot from Guyot-trained vines harvested mid-September. After fermentation, 40% of the wine was aged in second-use barrels for six months and the oak is quite apparent.
