Old Vine 2002

[Thomas]

Bogle. They don't make this stuff themselves at Bogle, but they sure know how to find good stuff at a decent price. For $12 this is a really fine product.

Bramble, dark berries, great raspy finish. Its 14.5 alcohol makes up for the high pH, but that high pH (low acid) was a perfect foil for the last of my 2004 tomatoes as a sauce over cavatelli!

The wine reminds me a lot of DiCastris Primitivo from Puglia.
