primitivo – Oray

Tasting Note: Primitivo di Manduria, ‘Sessantanni’, San Marzano, 2018

Comments = Power and precision, this wine offers a wonderful acidity that makes it very elegant. It has clearly raised the bar on what Puglia has to offer to the world of wine regarding the Primitivo grape. The finish is complex and long. I cannot recommend this wine enough.

Final Grade = A-

Tasting Note: Primitivo Luccarelli, 2020, PGI Puglia

Comments = This wine offers a great value for money with an elegant and harmonious mouth with enjoyable nuanced diverse aromas. It has been designed to drink young. I would definitely recommend to buy it if you can find it at around 10 euros. However, it is slightly below what is expected from a Primitivo in terms of aroma intensity.

Final Grade = B
