Vigneti del Salento 2016 Leggenda Vigne Vecchie (Primitivo di Manduria)
Tar and iodine are at the fore of the nose, leading to a palate that's more giving in its rich black-plum and dark-berry flavors. Rich fruit and dark cocoa tones dominate the palate, all wrapped in a firm coating of tannins and juicy acidity. Warm spice flavors feel a bit heavy on the robust finish. Alexander Peartree
