Pure Love Wines "Layer Cake" Primitivo, Puglia (Italy) 2007

Purple/red.

Deep nose of black fruit coulis, shoe polish, oak spice(?) and earth. Serious.

Round, deep and a bit pruney in the mouth, but not ridiculously so. Fleshy mid-palate and much better than expected concentration keep this very enjoyable through the finish. Which gets earth/truffley like Amarone. A bit of acidity pokes its head out late, but this is RFG. Particularly for the $$.

$15. Saranex screwcap (higher oxygen ingress, somewhere between natural and synthetic cork)
