DeLorimier, Wedding Cake 2019, Alexander Valley, Primitivo

If you love rich, berry-forward reds with a touch of spice, this Alexander Valley Primitivo will hit all the right notes. Decadent and fruit-driven with just enough peppery kick, you can serve this with your favorite wood-fired pizza, spicy lamb kofta, pasta arrabbiata, or slow-roasted meats.

 Tasting Notes: Bright raspberry and black pepper aromatics lead into a plush, silky palate bursting with red and black berries. Notes of baking spice, mocha, and dark chocolate add layers of complexity, while a second wave of rich berry fruit lifts the mid-palate into a long, lifted finish. Fresh yet full-bodied, this Primitivo is both easy-drinking and deeply expressive.

Varietals: 100% Primitivo
