Tasting notes

On the nose the notes of flowers and thiols are light. On the palate a fresh and salty acidity gives way to fine but marked tannins. Importer notes describe aromas of tropical fruit, floral notes, and hints of dried fruit over a saline background. More info

See here our shipping policy.

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

Azienda Agricola Denavolo

Azienda Agricola Denavolo was founded in 2005 by Giulio Armani in the locality of Denavolo, within the municipality of Travo in the Val Trebbia. The estate is located in the province of Piacenza, between the Trebbia and Nure valleys. Armani has worked as winemaker at La Stoppa since 1980. Denavolo began with approximately 3 hectares of vineyards and produces about 20,000 bottles annually. The estate takes its name from Monte Denavolo and focuses on white grapes handled with extended skin contact.

Denavolo's vineyards are described as organically and biodynamically farmed but uncertified. Vineyard treatments are limited to copper and sulfur, and the work is carried out on steep sites in the Piacenza hills. The estate's original parcels sit between 350 and 450 metres, while later plots at Campo Rotonde and Cassandra reach 500 to 600 metres. The soils are clay-limestone in the original vineyards and stony in the higher parcels. Planted varieties include Malvasia di Candia aromatica, Marsanne, Ortrugo, Trebbiano Romagnolo, Sauvignon Blanc, and unidentified local grapes.

At estate level, white grapes are processed with methods normally used for red wines. Fermentation is spontaneous with indigenous yeasts, and skin contact can last from several months to one year. The wines are fermented and aged mainly in stainless steel tanks, with some cuvees also using 500-litre acacia barrels. Temperature control is not used, and the wines are bottled without fining or filtration. Denavolo does not add sulfur, and reported total sulfur levels are below 10 mg/L. Giulio Armani directs the cellar work, with vineyard harvesting carried out by the Denavolo team.

Wine region

Emilia-Romagna, Italy

The Colli Piacentini occupy the western end of Emilia-Romagna, south of the Po River and across the lower Apennine valleys of Tidone, Trebbia, Nure, and Arda. Vineyard sites commonly lie between 150 and 400 metres, with slopes that aid drainage. The soils include clay and limestone, while the Trebbia valley exposes sedimentary layers of limestone, sandstone, siltstone, and clay formed through submarine deposition. The regional climate is subcontinental, with cold winters and hot summers in the Po Valley. The Apennine foothills provide elevation, slope, and air movement between the plain and the Ligurian Apennines.

The Colli Piacentini DOC was recognized by decree on July 9, 1967, and covers hilly portions of 24 municipalities, including Travo, Rivergaro, Bobbio, and Castell'Arquato. Its named subzones include Monterosso Val d'Arda, Trebbianino Val Trebbia, Val Nure, and Vigoleno for Vin Santo. A Colli Piacentini Sauvignon must contain at least 85% Sauvignon, while the broader white Vin Santo blend requires at least 80% from Malvasia di Candia aromatica, Ortrugo, Sauvignon, Marsanne, and Trebbiano Romagnolo. The denomination also includes Gutturnio, Ortrugo, Malvasia, Barbera, Bonarda, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Nero, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Denavolo's Mansano is bottled as Vino Bianco rather than under the DOC structure.
