The D Cubed Cellars 2006 Primitivo is the second vintage of this fun wine. The fruit is harvested from the Cypress Ranch in Pope Valley (the back-side of Howell Mountain). Primitivo is the clone of Zinfandel that is grown in Italy and pairs well with similar foods. Tasting Notes from Owner and Winemaker Duane Dappen: The 2006 vintage of Primitivo fills your nose with blackberry and strawberry aromas with hints if black pepper and mushrooms. The medium full body has smooth tannins and flavors of berries, black pepper and earth. Enjoy the similarities and differences of Primitivo with Zinfandel. Total Production: 307 cases
