Winemaker Notes
The 2011 Primus Carmenere begins with deep carmine red color in the glass. On the nose, the notes of plum and blackberry mingle invitingly with hints of exotic spice. Fresh and delicate avors of cherry and plum are complemented by a touch of spice and so notes of dried figs. This is wine is well balanced with mouthwatering acidity and round and so tannins

Nicely done, the 2011 Primus Carmenere stays in the varietal's sweet spot; shows the true character of the grape, without overdoing it. I would pair this one with a double thick, grilled pork chop. Medium to dark ruby color; pleasing red fruit aroma, lightly savory, fine depth; medium bodied, velvety on the palate; dryish, medium acidity, good balance; attractive ripe, red fruit flavors, with a faint touch of dried fruit and sweet oak; medium finish, slightly rounded in the aftertaste.
