Caleo Primitivo Salento 2008

Salento, Puglia, ItalyAn imperfect red from southern Italy that has some street appeal. It is all primitivo but its extruded rubbery artificial cork lends it's a bit of a burnt rubber reductive nose that mixes with a touch of oxidation and sweet pruny character from all the southern warmth. A spaghetti red with aspirations.Tasted: 28 December 2010Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
