Dominic Hentall Terra Calda Primitivo 2020
About the wine
Generously juicy old vine Primitivo from the Italian coast
- This bold, mouthwatering Primitivo is flush with refined dried fruit flavors and old vine elegance that unfold with a long, lavish finish.
- Dom has made Primitivo in southern Italy for years – Puglia’s his all-time favorite wine region. For this specialty red, your funding helped him source hand-harvested Primitivo from 80-year-old vines right near the sea.
- You might know this bold Italian red better than you think. Primitivo and Zinfandel? Same grape – just one grows in Italy. If you love hearty old vine California Zin gushing with dark fruit flavors, you’re in for a treat!
Best before
This Primitivo will age well for the next 5 years.
Serving advice
Let this bold red breathe for about 1-2 hours before serving. Decanting is ideal, if possible.
Food match
Italian pasta dishes, red meats and charcuterie are my favorite pairings with this red.
Contains sulphites
