Description
In a nutshell:
An elegant and high-class Carmenere from Chile's Aconcagua valley.
The lowdown:
Carmenère, Chile's signature red grape these days, originated in Bordeaux, but the soils and climate of its adopted country, particularly in the Aconcagua Valley, suit it so well that Chile is seen as where it belongs. The grapes for this were handpicked, double sorted and then gently crushed before being aged for 14 months in French oak barrels. It's got a smooth and velvety body with intense, ripe cherry fruit flavours, notes of figs and dates, accompanied by hints of coffee, cloves and chocolate. Its quality comes across as quite effortless and pleasingly subtle.
When to drink:
Carmenere is usually a good red to match with spicy foods and this one lives right up to that reputation.
