5 Stars for JOSEPH Sparkling Red in The Age
JOSEPH Sparkling Red is the perfect pairing for roast turkey with cranberries or chicken with chestnut stuffing this Christmas according to The Age's Epicure Uncorked, Ralph Kyte-Powell. In this weekend's five star review Ralph says:
'Australia's most distinctive sparkling red? Based on aged red wines with an annual contribution of younger Primo Estate material it's complex with leathery notes, plum, berry fruit, hints of spice and old oak. Dry for its kind, it is soft and creaming, subtly flavoured, long and complete. Five stars'
PLUS
The Age's 'Presents for Palates' feature by Jeni Port recommends the JOSEPH Sparkling Red as a Christmas gift for its 'A massively complex, engaging sparkling from McLaren Vale; old wine base material is the secret, chocolate, aniseed, allspice, blackberry and fruit cake'

Corks were popping here at Primo when we heard that legendary wine critic and long time Primo supporter James Halliday had included our JOSEPH Sparkling Red in his 100 Top Wines of 2011. Halliday writes: 'This is a very complex wine that invites the second glass as the multi-spice flavours run across the palate, 95 points.' Thank you James, we'll raise a glass to that!

'Intensely flavoured and incredibly drinkable' 94 points for Zamberlan
Tony Love's Top 100 wines gives our 2009 Primo Estate Zamberlan Cabernet Sangiovese 94 points describing it as:
'A waft of oak to begin, with dark chocolate and black fruits, this was passed over dried out skins of the famed JOSEPH Moda in the ripasso method. Beautifully textured, intensely flavoured and incredibly drinkable, finishing with savoury tannins yet a lightness of being.'
Tony recommends pairing Zamberlan with rosemary lamb and we agree!

'Summer in a bottle' 03 Points for La Biondina
This weekend's Top 100 Wines gives our 2011 Primo Estate La Biondina Colombard a wonderful write-up in 'Great Buys for $20 and Under'. Tony Love writes:
'Primo's colombard-based white is summer in a bottle. This is its 30th consecutive bottling expressing electric freshness, lime, mint and sweet lifts of pine-lime splice. Crunchy as ever and crying out for shellfish.'

'Superb' 94 Points for JOSEPH d'Elena
Tony Love has chosen our JOSEPH d'Elena Pinot Grigio as his 'Editor's Pick' in this year's Top 100 Wines. Tony writes:
'One of the variety's Australian benchmarks working fruit mostly from McLaren Vale's eastern hills sub-region of Clarendon into a crisp, correct grigio style, tidily steered with subtle florals, poise and balance and an engaging minerality beside classic white skinner pear, apple and citrus flavours. Superb.'
