2022 Primitivo
Made for starry nights around the fire pit
This is the red you reach for around the fire pit after the kids are asleep or during a good backyard hang that stretches later than planned. Bold, plush, and generous, it’s exactly what you want when the moment is relaxed, but the wine still matters.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT
-
- Plush, fruit-forward, and satisfying from the first sip
- Bold enough to feel special, easy enough to open on a weeknight
- A go-to bottle for fire pit nights, game nights, and casual gatherings that deserve better wine
PAIRS WELL WITH
This wine plays well with grilled leftovers, simple snacks, or enjoyed completely on its own. No plate required.
TASTING NOTES
Deep ruby-purple in the glass, this Primitivo opens with aromas of blackberry preserves, fig compote, and ripe black cherry, layered with dried rose petal, allspice, and hints of cracked white pepper.
