As one of the first varietals to be harvested in Italy, Primitivo loosely translates to 'early ripening'. It was given this name because every growth stage for the Primitivo grape happens early, starting from flowering through to colour change. This full-bodied wine brings aromas of dark raspberry, black currant, and preserved cherry with hints of coffee and baking spice. It's earthy, bold and luscious character are complemented by round tannins and a smooth finish.
