Primitivo is the Italian twin to Zinfandel, making it a natural fit for the Opolo family of wines. This limited-edition bottling from the Opolo Reserve Collection comes from our estate To the Moon Vineyard in the Willow Creek District, where calcareous soils and coastal breezes create a varietally expressive Primitivo. 

The 2021 Primitivo bursts from the glass with aromas of raspberry jam, black plum, vanilla, caramel and savory star anise. Flavors of blue fruits and boysenberry flood that mouth with hints of strawberry, dried herbs, earthy notes and cracked pepper. Crunch acidity flows seamlessly into a juicy, spicy finish.
