Lori Kilmartin WSET3 - WSET3 Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review: This is a blend of grapes from the Primarius Winery's assorted vineyards in Oregon. Primarius is latin for "distinguished" which is what the winemaker Sarah Cabot strives for. Aromas of sweet cherry and cranberry. Tart cherry flavours with soft tannins and medium acidity. This would pair well with grilled salmon or a roast pork dinner. Tasted May 6, 2018.
Emilie Ryan rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review: A good, classic Willamette Valley, Oregon, Pinot Noir… Presentation: Plain yet it stands out and has a certain class to it Appearance: Pale ruby Nose: Medium nose with notes of raspberries, forest floor and even a hint of chocolate Taste: Dry, medium body, high acidity, sharp tannins, sour raspberries, dirty (earth) Finish: medium, sour red fruit and dirty earth finish Overall impression: This is a very good, classic-style Pinot Noir. It would pair well with hard cheese, grilled vegetables, and lighter meats (e.g., poultry, pork). Value: 4/5
Primarius 2015 is a earthy and silky Pinot Noir from Oregon. Look for raspberry, cherry, cinnamon and clove spice on the palate. The wine was aged in stainless steel tank with oak Staves - 80% French 20% American, 15% new. - Community Wine Reviews
