  1. Loved this post – I just assumed Zinfandel and Primitivo were stylistically similar – and essentially interchangeable. Fun fact: the California Crush Report separates Primitivo and Zinfandel for their data reporting. Primitivo is less expensive than Zinfandel per ton, which I found curious – It made me wonder if they are really the same? or is there something significantly different? Your writeup makes the distinctions clearer for me. Thanks for sharing!

    1. Thank you for reading it and your feedback, I really appreciate it Erin! Yes, in the US they were not registered as synonims but this has changed lately. That´s why you can find “Italian Zinfandels” on the shelves there now…
