Primitivo is a variety of which we don’t get to see enough - more commonly known as likely the greatest red variety of Puglia, here we see a version from interior Campania in the appellation of Roccamonfina, a verdant appellation on top of an extinct volcano. It’s a region rich in basaltic soils as a result, and this bottling of Primitivo from the label Enoz is called ‘il Chaos,’ for reasons we’ve not yet really discerned. This wine isn’t chaotic at all, but rather, carries the spices in black fruit along with red-fruit perfume that we so like in this variety; its tannins are gently put together as a result of fermentation and aging in a mix of terracotta amphorae and porcelain. It’s a beguiling wine, one that merits contemplation - and a little sign that Campania is home to some terrific potential in its reds outside of just the famous Aglianico.
