Primus The Blend 2012

Inspired by the magnificent and rugged surroundings of the Andes, Primus produces big, bold red wines of uncompromising quality that showcase the best from both sides of the Andes. Primus exhibits ripe red- and black-berry fruit flavors with exotic spicy notes. A soft, yet full-bodied wine with a long, memorable finish.

39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Carmenere, 23% Syrah, 10% Merlot. Produced & bottled by Veramonte. Veramonte Winery, opened in 1998, is a striking, modern facility designed by one of Chile's leading architects, Jorge Swinburn. Built for small-lot wine production, the facility ensures individual vineyard blocks can be fermented and aged separately prior to final blending—allowing winemaking to create authentic, vineyard-expressive wines. Veramonte makes three separate product labels in addition to their main Veramonte label: Primus, Ritual, and Cruz Andina. Created by Agustin Huneeus, an international vintner known for creating some of the world's finest red blends and founder of Veramonte Winery, Primus "The Blend" is one of Chile's top red blends with a strong history of accolades.
