16/20 (90/100

Аромат красивый, пряно-ягодный, много сладких пряностей, корицы, мускатного ореха, черных сладких ягод, вяленой смородины, черничного джема, корицы, кардамона. Очень полный вкус, насыщенно, структурированно, очень хорошо.

Tasted this about a year ago so I think it’s time to check in to see how it develops after a year.
Stay pretty much the same. Cassis, raspberry, black cherry, steeped black tea, light peppery spices. Vanilla has faded further. Medium body. Lively palate with cool acidity.
Remarkable freshness at this age for a cab that cost around $15.

The nose was quite complex for a bottle in the price range, opening up with cassis, raspberry, bell pepper, and light barnyard, then turned to incense, vanilla, cured meat, and mint. The entry was soft yet bright, with fig and spice coming on strong on the mid palate. Fine elegant tannins.
This Primus is in its prime.

A spicy wine with a base of blackberry. Quite woodsy and smooth.

Round mouth full, pretty fruity, full bodied, slight sharpness at the end, but does not linger. Clean finish with a not unpleasant aftertaste. Initially sweet, like a split second on the nose and tip of the tongue, and then becomes complex in the mouth. Had in fancy glass, smells real good (Charles says fruity)

Earthy - never had a Chilean cab - had some of the peppery taste of the Malbec. Awesome wine

First day with 30 mins decant there are a lot of dark fruits with a touch of spice. After rebottling and drinking on day 2 it opened up beautifully: nose of clove, cacao, leather, and ripe berries. The palate was similar to the nose. Beautiful.
