Apollonio 2011 Terragnolo Primitivo (Salento)

Country: Italy / Terragnolo
Variety: Primitivo Southern Italy
Winery: Apollonio / Salento

Aromas of coconut, spicy plum cake, mocha and vanilla waft out of the glass. The warm palate doles out stewed plum, blackberry, espresso, licorice and a confectionary note alongside bracing, astringent tannins that dry the mouth. The intense oak sensations throw this off balance.
