Smooth, fruit-forward, and genuinely characterful, this is a wine that over-delivers at its price and introduces one of Italy's most exciting and underrated wine regions. 'Ruminat' takes its name from the Abruzzo dialect word for reflection and contemplation — a fitting name for a wine that rewards a moment of pause.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMy Wine Man on Lunaria and Abruzzo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCantina Orsogna is a cooperative in the Abruzzo region of central Italy — a region better known for Montepulciano d'Abruzzo than for Primitivo, but one that is increasingly producing wines of real quality and character. The Lunaria range is the cooperative's certified biodynamic label — farmed without synthetic chemicals or pesticides, with a focus on expressing the natural character of the land. Primitivo is one of Italy's most ancient and characterful red grapes — genetically identical to California's Zinfandel — producing wines of rich, dark fruit character and natural warmth. At HK$149, this is one of the most interesting and honest bottles in the store.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack cherries, prunes, and violets on the nose, carrying through to a smooth, black-fruited palate with sweet spice notes and soft tannins, balanced by a refreshing seam of acidity.
