Primus is now a blend of six varieties—cabernets sauvignon and franc, syrah, malbec, petit verdot and carmenère. In 2020, it’s sleek and saturated with blue fruit, tangy and herbal, the tannins pleasantly dry and abrasive. It offers layers of complex flavor at a very reasonable price. - Joshua Greene Dec '23
The 2020 Primus The Blend is a combination of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Syrah, 10% Malbec, 8% Petit Verdot, 7% Carménère and 5% Cabernet Franc from Apalta, aged for 16 months in foudres and barrels. Dark garnet red in hue. The blend makes for a complex, balsamic nose of ripe redcurrant, blueberry and undergrowth aromas (thanks to the nearby forest), over a bed of oak. Indulgent and broad with an expansive flow tickled by structural tannins. A ripe, juicy, nuanced wine. Joaquín Hidalgo Jun '23
