Compost on the nose, although we just opened this 6 year old bottle. So, ok. Truth time. We've had carmenere wines before and thought they were oddly flavored, off balanced, and overall not so great. Whew! Got that off my chest. This wine shows some real promise. Fully flavored with lovely red fruits, smooth tannins and silky finish. We enjoyed this and am sure it will open up. — 4 years ago

I much prefer the basic Casa Silva #Carmenere over this one. This is deep in color and ripe on the nose and palate, but it has gone too far into wanting to be super silky and super ripe. It has lost the texture and the terroir for me. I also don’t like the milky, creamy diacetyl/lactic finish. Good but not great. #chile #colchagua #colchaguavalley #cordillera — 5 years ago

Enjoyed it immensely with our grilled ribeye steak! Perfect pairing. The steak elevates the wine significantly. Dark fruit with fully integrated smooth tannins in this 10 year old wine. It has this green pea, olive note to it that I presume comes from the Carmenere that I personally don’t care for too much. Very balanced, very present, smooth finish, decent complexity. — 8 months ago

2018 Coyam from Emiliano Los Robles Estate 150 km south of Santiago, Chile.
Organic and biodynamic practices by Alvaro Espinoza.
42% Syrah, 39% Carmenere, 6% Cab Sauv, 5%Garnacha, 3% Malbec, 3% Carignan, 1% Tempranillo and 1% Mourvèdre. Truly a field blend wine.
Ripe blueberries, blackberries and cherries on the nose with a hint of earth.
This wine is so smooth. Flavours of plums, dark fruit, fig and a hint of smokiness. Smooth tannins and a long finish. Put anything on the grill and enjoy this. — 4 years ago

Interesting blend of Carmenere (75%) and Merlot (25%) from the Veneto. Dark berries, cocoa and black pepper aromas. Spicy pallet with big red and black fruit. Hint of soy sauce. Lots of firm tannin and length on the finish. Bold and interesting. — 5 years ago

One of my favorite stops in Chile. Amazing property that Robert Mondavi had a hand in siting & starting. The view from the top of their mountain side beautifully overlooks their vineyard and the Andes Mountains.

This producer is meticulous in every step of product. If they are not certified bio-dynamic, they follow that practice.

94-96 with another 5-7 years of cellaring

50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Malbec, 17% Carmenere and 6% Petit Verdot, fermented mostly in stainless steel and 10% in oak foudre.
