Red wine | Chile
Imagine yourself transported to the sun-drenched valleys of Chile, where the majestic Andes Mountains provide a stunning backdrop to the Veramonte vineyards. This is where the Primus 2007 originates, a testament to the unique terroir and the meticulous craftsmanship that defines Veramonte. This wine is more than just a beverage; it's an experience, a journey for your senses that will leave you yearning for another sip.
Crafted from a harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot, and the distinctive Carmenère, this wine is an embodiment of complexity and balance. The Cabernet Sauvignon provides a robust structure, while the Syrah contributes a peppery spice and dark fruit notes. Merlot lends a velvety smoothness, and Carmenère adds a touch of Chilean character with its unique herbaceousness and subtle earthy undertones. The 2007 vintage was an exceptional year, characterized by long, warm days and cool nights, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and develop intense flavors. The result is a wine that showcases the best of Chilean winemaking.
On the nose, the Primus 2007 presents a captivating bouquet of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, intertwined with hints of cedar, vanilla, and a touch of spice. As it opens up in the glass, you'll discover layers of complexity, with subtle notes of leather, tobacco, and a hint of chocolate. The palate is equally rewarding, with a full-bodied structure, firm tannins, and a long, lingering finish. The flavors echo the aromas, with a rich tapestry of dark fruit, spice, and earthy nuances. The wine's well-integrated oak adds a subtle touch of elegance, without overpowering the fruit.
The Primus 2007 is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Its robust structure and complex flavors make it an excellent choice for grilled meats, such as steak, lamb, or venison. It also complements hearty stews, roasted vegetables, and aged cheeses. For a truly unforgettable experience, try it with Chilean empanadas or a traditional asado. For the wine to fully open to the bouquet of aromas, give the wine around 15 minutes in the glas. The optimum temperature to drink this wine is around 16 °C.
