Rocca Primitivo Salento

Wine Profile

About This Wine

Dry, solid, and velvety flavor with a final note of vanilla. A full-bodied wine made from large grapes that ripen quickly. Legend says that Primitivo was the wine served at the Last Supper. We recommend decanting this wine prior to serving for a smoother texture and more vibrant aromas and flavors.
