The story behind Mandonion
Primitivo is a red grape tied to Puglia, the heel of Italy, where hot sun and coastal breezes ripen it to deep color and generous fruit. The wine tends to run full bodied and soft, with dark berry, plum and a warm spice note, and it usually drinks well young without much fuss.
We keep Mandonion Primitivo in Commack as a small, everyday bottle, one we stock in limited quantity rather than by the case. It is a straightforward southern Italian red for the table.
