PRIMUS CABERNET SAUVIGNON 19

Primus is a leading brand in the Chilean premium segment and a preeminent example of Chilean quality capabilities. The name Primus is Latin and means “the first” or “the first among its peers”, and for good reason. The winery was founded more than 20 years ago by Agustin Hunneus. It was truly a pioneering brand as the first blend of the signature red grapes of Chile: Cabernet and Carmenere. Today, The Blend is still the standard bearer for Primus, and has been joined by two single varietal wines: Primus Cabernet Sauvignon and Primus Carmenere. Fruit is selected from the most renowned areas in Chile for red varieties: Apalta, a sub-region of Colchagua, and Maipo, renowned for producing the best Cabernet Sauvignon in Chile. These are food wines, known for their balance, elegance and freshness. Aging in oak barrels and founders gives elegance and finesse to the wines. All farming practices are organic.

Tasting Notes:
Primus Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from Alto Mapio, one of the best regions in Chile for this variety. Lively aromas of blackberry, blueberry and dried cherry intertwine with vanilla and cedar notes. A smooth silky texture with fine tannins and balance, providing a beautiful and lingering finish. Perfect with roast beef and lamb.
