Primitivo is the same grape as California’s Zinfandel, produced in very similar hot, dry climates. Ours has plenty of lovely smooth, sweet fruit flavours that work particularly well with spicy, tomato based curries. A small proportion of the wine is made from grapes that have been allowed to dry out in the sun after the harvest. This concentrates the flavours, giving you lots of bang for your buck. Which is always nice.
