The color is a lively ruby red with delicate garnet reflections. On the nose, the bouquet is mineraly with undertones of cherries and plums; the finish is of flowers and spices. The palate expresses soft tannins, good acidity and the soft mouthfeel which are characteristics of the bounty of Primitivo which was once a strong and rustic wine and is now one of elegance and nobility. Serve this wine with pasta and meat sauce, red meats including lamb. Ideal partner for cheese.
"Cantele's 2008 Primitivo offers up dark red fruit, licorice, leather and dark plums. There isn't a ton of varietal character, but at this price point that is splitting hairs, as the wine’s balance is excellent. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2012."
