Description:
Focusing on old-vine versions of the Negroamaro and Primitivo varietals, La Corte offers consumers a series of fruit-driven and balanced wines in an exciting package, combined with the value usually associated with the products of southern Italy. Made from 100% Primitivo, this wine is very dense scarlet red in color. The wine exhibits complex, rich and spicy aromas with attractive sweet and sour notes. On the palate, the wine has a sweet, rich taste with dark red berry fruit and spice as well as solid, balanced tannins. This wine would pair extremely well with braised short ribs and rich sauces.
