The Riserva is Fatalone's flagship Primitivo and is built to last. The wine is dark and intense, yet far from being a jammy Zinfandel-like expression of the grape. Fatalone represents the best of Puglia.
We were so excited to get the Fatalone wines, which are among Puglia's finest. The Spinomarino is made from Greco, and has a "delicate bouquet of spring flowers, with the heady scent of flowering grapes, green apple and pineapple, mixed with a mild note of honey. Smooth, pleasant, balanced taste of apricot, yellow plum, green banana and honey."
A fresh, mineral-driven light red wine [but with a punch!] full of strawberry, cranberry, raspberry, and red currant notes. This is an extraordinary wine that will change any preconceived notions about Primitivo and balance in wine.
