A-Mano, Primitivo 2003, Puglia IGT, Italy ($20)

While a perfectly well made wine, the flavour gave no indication of place. It made for unremarkable stuff. And no distinctiveness of grape variety came through. While there aren't any Aussie primitivos to my knowledge, there seemed little point in making a detour for this bottle again. For $10 we can get well made yet undistinctive wine - why pay more?
