Primitivo
Filter
Primitivo is a red grape that was originally planted in southern Italy, notably in Puglia. The robust and rustic spicy black and fruity notes of Primitivo thrive in the warmest climates, and will achieve extremely high alcohol levels. Most people believe that Pimitivo and Zinfandel is the same grape and actually, they are genetically similar although it took some detective work and DNA fingerprinting to figure that out. Zinfandel and Primitivo are closes of the Croatian grape that is called Crljenak. Cloning is not a bad thing when it comes to grapes and is merely a genetic subtype that occurs naturally or is gently encouraged by the grower. Grapes are more adaptable than people think and can mutate extremely easily. If a grape grow catches a glimpse of a vine that is preferable for berry size, ripening characteristics and cluster formation, it is easy to graft and cut a clone onto an established vine, which is how the Primitivo red grape was created. Although Zinfandel and Primitivo have been considered by most as synonyms, the United States labeling laws does not allow them to be used interchangeably. That is why you will find Zinfandel and Pimitivo blends in the US.

Jean Arthaud Bourgogne Blanc is made from 100% Chardonnay.
Located in the south of the Mâconnais region, the Pouilly Fuissé AOP covers four communes Its patchwork of Climats produces white wines that are well suited to fine cuisine. Our Pouilly Fuissé comes from vines nestling between the Roche de Solutré and the Roche de Vergisson. It combines the firm crispness created by the limestone soils with the smoothness derived from the more clay rich soils to produce a well rounded wine.
Fruity aromas of peaches, lemons and Granny Smith apples interwoven with lighter notes of jasmine and acacia Mineral and buttery overtones subtly round off the bouquet.
