On this Saturday night I have opened another Chilean Carmenere. The 2012 Arboleda Carmenere Aconcagua Valley. I am really growing to like these Carmenere's.

On the nose there is raspberry sauce, plum, ripe strawberries, stewed prune, figs and a sultry hint of oak.

At first sip there is expressive red and dark fruit, cherry, strawberries, fig, green bell pepper I really like a lot, spices, smokey oak and wet soil.

There are medium fine tannins, medium + acidity with a crisp fresh full rounded mouthfeel that is well balanced. A beautiful expression of Carmenere and the QPR on this wine is through the the roof.

What a way to enjoy a Saturday night.

Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷
