Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package; carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older. Shipping to PO Boxes is not allowed.

Ship to a FedEx Store

If nobody can be at your address to sign for the package, you can have your order sent to a FedEx store instead. Enter your preferred FedEx store as the shipping address at checkout and we'll ship your order there. Once it arrives, you have 5 business days to pick it up, and you'll need to show your ID.

Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

Re-routing a Package

If you'd like to reroute a package after it's been shipped, we can do so for a $20 re-routing fee. We cannot re-route a package across state borders. For any change of address, please contact us as soon as possible, ideally within 1-2 days from placing the order or we cannot guarantee we'll be able to reroute or change your order's shipping address.

Canceling an Order

If you'd like to cancel an order after it's been shipped, we can do so upon payment of a small cancellation fee – the amount depends on the size of the order. Carriers charge us a lot of money to recall a package en-route.

Heat/Frost damage

We are not responsible for heat- or frost-related issues. We offer ice packs upon request, at a cost, but even so, we can't be held liable if it's 104 where you are and corks pop. Please let us know if you think that there could be heat-related issues. If we don't hear anything from you regarding weather issues before an order is shipped, or if you don't request a hold due to the weather, we are not responsible for heat/frost damage.

Placed an order. What next?

1. You will receive an order confirmation email with your order summary.*

2. As soon as your order ships from the warehouse, usually within 2-3 business days, this applies to all shipping rates, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with your tracking information. 2DAY shipping refers to shipping time; we still need 2-3 business days to prepare an order. We need to pick and pack, QA, add printed collateral, and palletize the orders.

3. Please track your package using the tracking service.

4. The carrier will attempt delivery a maximum of 3 times. After 3 delivery attempts, your package will be sent back to our warehouse.**

*Please ensure your email address is correct; otherwise, you will not receive the order and shipping confirmation emails.

**If delivery is attempted 3 times without success, or if you fail to retrieve your package from the carrier depot by the stated deadline, the shipping fee will not be refunded to the customer.

Returns Policy

If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us at (424) 414-2040 or via e-mail at hello@primalwine.com between 9 am and 5 pm Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Sunday, we would like to understand and try to solve your concerns. We can offer refunds only as store credit.

Producer profile

Folicello

Folicello was founded in 1980 by Antonella and Marco in Castelfranco Emilia, in the Province of Modena, in the Emilian countryside they had chosen as their home. Their starting point was personal: they wanted to make a wholesome glass of wine to share with family and friends, farmed and made without chemical inputs. What began as a private project grew into a small recognized producer over four decades. Antonella Fontana works as the winemaker. Their daughters have since joined the family business, with Irene managing production, packaging, and warehouse logistics from 2022, and Federica and Irene overseeing commercial operations and vineyard production. The estate also makes organic grape juice, jams, and vinegar.

The estate is certified organic and farms without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers, treating the vineyard as a living ecosystem. It grows indigenous Emilia-Romagna varieties including Pignoletto, Montuni, Trebbiano, Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro, Lambrusco di Sorbara, and Malbo Gentile, alongside Moscato and Pinot Bianco. The vines sit on composite soils of clay, silt, and sand in the plains between Modena and Bologna. Biodiversity is actively fostered so that beneficial insects control vineyard pests, and chickens and other farm animals move freely among the rows. The winery is self-sufficient for electricity through solar generation, and marc from fermented must is reused to prepare treatments for the vines.

In the cellar the approach is minimal. All wines ferment spontaneously with indigenous yeasts, and no sulfur is added at any stage, not during fermentation, aging, or bottling, an approach reflected in the estate's Senza Solfiti bottlings. Wines are left unfined and unfiltered, reflecting the view that quality comes from healthy vineyards rather than cellar manipulation. Sparkling wines are made by the ancestral method, bottled while still fermenting so that fermentation completes in bottle and generates natural effervescence. Certain cuvées receive a short skin maceration before bottling. The estate operates a new cellar that combines traditional and modern equipment for its organic wines and grape juices.

Wine region

Emilia-Romagna, Italy

Emilia occupies the western portion of Emilia-Romagna in northern Italy, running from Piacenza through Parma, Reggio Emilia, and Modena toward Bologna. Its vineyards sit largely on the flatlands of the Po Valley, the Pianura Padana, with the Apennine foothills providing elevation to the south. Alluvial soils deposited over centuries by the Po and its tributaries dominate the plains, a mix of sand, silt, and clay that is deep, mineral-rich, and water-retentive. The foothills carry calcareous clay from ancient marine sedimentation, a blend of limestone and clay. The climate is continental, with hot, humid summers and cold, foggy winters, moderated by the Po River and the Apennines. Between plain and hill the difference in elevation is often modest, roughly 50 to 300 metres, yet drainage, exposure, and soil composition shift.

The Emilia IGT covers the provinces of Ferrara, Modena, Parma, Piacenza, Reggio Emilia, and part of Bologna, and functions as a broad geographical indication with wide latitude for producers. Sparkling wines in red, white, and rosé fall under the title, as do all mutations of the Lambrusco family, and no fewer than 25 grape varieties are named in its legal documents, from local Ancellotta and Montuni to Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Bianco, rosso, and rosato wines may use any of the permitted grapes, and single-variety, dual-variety, still, sparkling, and passito styles are all allowed. Typical output is high-volume and young-drinking, and permitted yields are generous. Folicello bottles its white pét-nat under the Bianco Emilia IGT designation.
