2010 Edgefield Primitivo

B and I decided to head to the McMenamins in our hood for some late night eats, brews and vines... Upon the urging of our fav waiter we tried the Primitivo. Wow! This primitivo hales from the Columbia Valley and is 13.5% abv.
Smells like tobacco and blackberry
Mid pallet is a burst of blackberries and a hint of cherry.
Finishes smooth with a bit of bark, but super wet... awesome drinkable red.  Reminds me of a Zin...  would be perfect for Thanksgiving dinner!!

Everyone should try a glass and tell me what they think :)
