Masseria AlteMura Sasseo Primitivo
Varietal: Zinfandel
Bottle Size: 750 mL
Region: Italy
Medium Red Wines
Made from a strict selection of grapes - exclusively of the Primitivo variety, from unique vineyards that maintain the quality of its indigenous cultivar whilst opening itself up to international taste. The name Sasseo (meaning "stony") was chosen to recall the uniqueness, sunniness and strength of the terroir that has produced this wine. Good body with a soft and warm mouth-filling flavour, supported by sweet tannins. An ideal wine to accompany roasted red meat dishes or roast lamb.
Staff Review:
Sour cherries, violets, licorice and sweet spices on the nose. Fruity yet velvety on the palate. Great for get togethers or by the fire.
If you like juicy jammy California Zinfandel then you will love this Italian version. Big, bold flavors of cherry, Raspberry and plum with a slightly smokey finish. Great with pulled pork!
