Winemaker Notes
Bright carmine red. Expressive and aromatic, with notes of blackberry, strawberry and blueberry, mixed with hints of cinnamon, cloves,
pepper, rosemary and bay leaf. Elegant, with fl avors of plum and strawberry, enveloped in a so and velvety texture. is wine has fresh acidity and round, well integrated tannins that provide a lingering fi nish.

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 Colchagua, and Maipo. These are food wines, known for their balance, elegance and freshness. Aging in oak barrels and foudres gives elegance and finesse to the wines. All farming practices are organic.
