2009 Caleo Salento Primitivo

Hello everyone!! We had this great little wine the other night with hoagies ala Al. The color was a deep violet ruby. The nose was not real big, but contained aromas of blueberry, cherry, and black raspberry along with toasty vanilla and a little spice. On the palate it was smooth and fruity with soft tannins and enough acid to support the fresh fruit. It also had a lingering fruit filled finish. Overall, it was yummy! And I only paid $8 for this at Total Wines in Atlanta. It was actually a very nice pairing with the spicy meats and onion of the hoagies.
