Cortenova Primativo 2012


Name: Cortenova

Variety: Primativo

Country:  Puglia, Italy

Year: 2012

Price: $10

Bottles Finished: 0 (Tasting Only)




Wine review: Dark, ruby-red color with violet highlights. Intense and fragrant bouquet with a rich array of red and black fruit aromas and flavors. Harmonious and velvety on the palate. Great balance and structure. 100% Zinfandel





My review
: Not too bad! This is my kind of bouquet: heavy leather, earthy, blackberry shambles, and slight arid desert aromas. On the palate was plum, leather, and cranberry tart, with a heavy and dusty body. Whereas this wine didn't sweep me off my feet, I would gladly return to this wine.
