On the riper side, lacking the characteristic green pepper found in many Carménères. Lighter tannins, cherries, and moderately spicy.

Earthy with oak. Too bitter for my taste.

Lovely nose. Not quite as expressive on the pallet, but great for the modest price.

Medium body, on the dry side, somewhat like a bordeux, good from first opening, but again. Total wine and more.

Decent everyday Carmenere, but there are better ones out there.
