Tasting notes:
Rather than the usual sources of Colchagua or Maipo, this pure Carmenere comes from further south, in Maule, where it seems to show more of a lighter, mintier side. That ensures tastes of green pepper and capsicum, along with a touch of nettle, and a medium-weight feel, but that doesn’t mean there’s no fruit flesh, with plenty of raspberry and cherry flavours too, followed by barrel-derived notes of cedar and chocolate. Stylistically, it is refreshing, and features plenty of dry, fine tannins. (Patrick Schmitt MW)
