Red Blend-Primivito, Tormaresca 06'


naked wine review 23
wine:Negoammaro, Primitivo, Cab
vintage:06'
producer:Tormaresca
region:Itay
price:$10.49
date tasted:5/16/08
place tasted:down on Highway 61
served with:self pity
appearance:it's busty and beautiful. Royal blueberry with blood red reflections shadowing the edges of the devils happy place.
taste:floral and light pepper mist enhances this inspired modern dance of naked blueberries, black currents, and soft tannins on the finish.
bouquet:subtle pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon stick.
balance:she is much thinner than she looks in her clothes; an alabaster queen dressed in black velvet.
comments:a friendly wine that communicates in light conversation and small talk, but not a wine you can trade deep philosophical insights or exotic weird experiences with. It's a fun one night stand party wine. You'll have a good time, but you won't go melting down your own leg, have an obsessive need to consume it night and day, and completely isolate all of your friends and family just so you can be with it. Maybe that's a good thing.

rating:2.8 stars
