Score: 93 James Suckling / 94 Tim Atkin
Primus, the icon wine of Bodegas Salentein, made with grapes from vineyards that express the best adaptation to the terroir and that come from selected plots of our farms of different heights. It is a limited edition that is made only in vintages where wines of exceptionally superior quality are obtained.
With aromas of outstanding elegance and very good intensity, where the notes of very ripe fruit stand out, blending harmoniously with the protein from its aging on fine lees and a wood that is excellently carried by the wine. It has aromas of wood provided by fermentation and aging in French oak.
