winemaker's notes:

Made from 100% Primitivo (Zinfandel's ancestor) from Puglia. A. Mano (meaning "made by hand") is made from 70-100 year-old, hand-cultivated, low-yielding vines.

This is a fruit-packed, food-friendly, modern wine, an excellent value and a great alternative to American Zinfandel. It pairs exceedingly well with a variety of dishes – grilled meats, rich pastas, spicy foods and barbecue.

I would buy this wine again

This wine has a Good nose, but not overpowering of alcohol smell, nice dark color. Nice raspberry aroma with tasting notes of anise and red licorice, leather, blueberry and clove on the nose. Velvety tannins that linger but are not harsh. New subtle tastes with each sip of various red fruit and spice aromas. This makes a great wine to bring to a host to share at your next invited dinner party. One that is reasonably priced and delivers well.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
