Tasting notes

The blend of Ortrugo and Moscato Bianco with Marsanne under skin contact produces a wine that moves between dried apricot and citrus peel, with a firm tannic edge that keeps it from being soft or flabby. It is genuinely different from most orange wines on the market because the raw material, Ortrugo grown at 500-plus meters in the Ligurian Apennines foothills, is almost never used this way.

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

Casè

Casè was founded in 1998 in Travo, a village in the Val Trebbia in the province of Piacenza, Emilia-Romagna. Alberto Anguissola planted the first vineyards in 1998 after analyzing the soil and climate of the hillside plots, and later began full-time winemaking in 2012 after previously working at La Stoppa alongside Giulio Armani. Diego Ragazzi is co-involved in the estate. The winery and home sit at around 550 meters above sea level on south-facing steep slopes.

Vineyards are farmed without synthetic herbicides, pesticides, or industrial fertilizers. Casè holds organic certification. Biodiversity is actively encouraged, with vines coexisting alongside wild herbs, insects, and small animals. The harvest is done by hand with selective removal of unripe or damaged bunches directly on the vine. Vine age in the Casebianco parcels ranges from 15 to 40 years. Soils in the identified plots are limestone and clay, with increasing clay content toward the edges of the hillsides.

In the cellar, only native yeasts are used for fermentation. White grape varieties, including those in the Casebianco blend, undergo skin maceration before pressing. The wine is bottled without fining, without filtration, and without added sulfites. Casè's stated objective is to produce wines that differ from each other vintage to vintage, reflecting actual growing conditions rather than a standardized house profile.

Wine region

Emilia-Romagna, Italy

Emilia-Romagna spans nearly the full width of northern Italy, running from the Ligurian Apennines in the west to the Adriatic coast in the east. The western half, Emilia, sits at the foot of the Apennines and is home to the Colli Piacentini DOC, which covers around 3,600 hectares of hilly terrain in the province of Piacenza. The Val Trebbia is one of four lateral valleys cutting into the Piacenza hills; the river Trebbia originates in Liguria and passes through Piedmont, Liguria, Lombardy, and Emilia-Romagna before reaching the Po. The valley's vineyards sit on limestone and clay soils at elevations up to 560 meters, with south-facing slopes that benefit from cool air movement off the valley floor. The climate is subcontinental in character, with cold winters and warm summers moderated at higher altitudes by breezes from the Apennines.

The dominant white variety in the Piacenza hills is Ortrugo, an indigenous grape with high acidity, traditionally used in frizzante and spumante blends with Malvasia di Candia Aromatica. Ortrugo has its own DOC, the Ortrugo dei Colli Piacentini, established in 2010 and renamed in 2013, and it appears in several Colli Piacentini sub-appellations including Trebbianino Val Trebbia. Malvasia di Candia Aromatica is the main aromatic white in the region and appears across all Colli Piacentini white blends. The region also produces Gutturnio, a red DOC from Barbera and Croatina, as well as Pinot Nero on hillside plots. Casè's wines fall under the Emilia IGT designation, which allows greater flexibility in grape varieties and winemaking practices than the local DOC rules permit.
