Tasting - Cortenova Primitivo

Name: Cortenova Primitivo
Variety: Primitivo
Region: Veneto
Country: Italy
Price: $10
Year: 2012

Winery 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.

My Review: Both on the nose and in the taste were dark fruits that came out. It was very smooth in the mouthfeel and had a great finish with more fruit coming out. The bouquet is strong and stands out and the taste really backs it up.

I did not try this with food.
