Luca Maroni Review
Rated 99
Great concentration and impressive softness. A wine that everyone will enjoy.
About Luca Maroni: Luca Maroni originated in Italy and is today one of the greatest wine critics in the world. His reviews are read worldwide and respected by wine lovers, wine collectors and those who simply enjoy drinking. The scores are based on a fomula that generates a point total. Unlike American reviews, there are no word decriptions. From 1988 to present, Luca Maroni has tasted over 300.000 wines.
Wine Tasting Notes
Masso Antico Primitivo, with its ruby red color and its complex bouquet, is characterized by intense and fine aromas, that go from mature fruit to spicy notes.
Masso Antico Primitivo is a beautiful Italian Primitivo (Zinfandel) that is produced in Apulia, Italy. This wine is produced in "leggermente appasitto" style, which means "slightly withered" on the vine like a raisin. This process of natural, partial dehydration of the grapes produces a greater concentration of colors, aromas, and flavors in the wine. The oak aging helps round out the sweetness and gives the wine a nice soft tannic structure. Later all the grapes are blended back together giving the 100% Primitivo a higher alcohol percentage and soft finish. Masso Antico Primitivo obtains a ruby red color and a complex bouquet complemented by intense and fine aromas of ripe fruits and spicy notes. Masso Antico Primitivo Appassito Salento IGT is an elegant Italian red that is award-winning across various vintages.
