A good example of #Chile #carmenere This vintage has seen some heat. Heavy nose of damp earth, Luxardo cherry and faint bell pepper with time.

Smooth palate. Remember more coffee/espresso character.

Like it, or not, this Carmenere is everything that is right about this " noble " grape.

Spicy, blue fruits, leather, dried fruit. Not a new favorite, but very enjoyable.

Barn, Italian herb blend (thyme, oregano, rosemary), and subtle floral on the nose. Linear and dry with a subtle berry finish. #carmenere #chile

Pemmican, savory pepper and stewed cherry on the nose. Dry, subtle cherry, raspberry and spice on the tongue. Definitely evolved in a good way over time!
