Family Selection Gran Reserva Carménère

Dariella had this 12 years ago

15/20 (85/100)

Достаточно интенсивно окрашенное вино. Аромат выраженный, фруктовый, ягодный - шелковица, зола, белый перец. Не слишком густой, молодой, чуть травянистый. Тело умеренно плотное, вкус перечно-ягодный, с очень пряным послевкусием, средней длительности.

On promo for $39 at CS. Can taste the sour cherry, sour jammy dark fruits, a slight herbaceousness (green peppercorn). Nice when chilled. But must drink quickly, the minerally bitterness is more pronounced when it sits out. Medium bodied, high acidity, a hint of coffee like tannins.

I like how carmenere is a good alternative if you like merlot but don't want to look like a basic bitch.

Accessible, smooth and build to please crowds, to bad for the greenish cab franc like bitter note, does not fit the profile.

Good color, medium intensity nose. Structured body, hints of ripe fruit and pepperish notes

Good

Colchagua Valley. Batch no. 68

I m not so into carmanere, let alone new world. But firm powerbody, cherries, plums, coffee in the nose. Sweet and a bit of acid to try to compensate. Fruity aftertaste.

Zeer goede wijn
