A very earthy red from Chile. Lots of vegetable notes on the nose. Showing a great dark ruby color.
Dry On the palate with black currants, earth, wood, vanilla, vegetables, wet leaves, forest floor, peppercorn, smoke and dark coffee.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and nice legs.
A good food wine. I paired it with Brie cheese and crackers.
Carmenere grapes were aged in French oak barrels for 12 months.
14% alcohol by volume.
85 points

Nose: medium intensity, but bursting with cranberry and pungent cedar, contains hints of red plum, green leaf, and menthol. On the tongue, the plum comes through with notes of white pepper and a backbone of black currant.

Aromas of dark red fruit. On the palate ripe blackberry, black cherries and blackberries, with notable spice. The wine was overly acidic with a mineral/oaky flavor with grainy tannins. Tasting Sample.

Surprisingly complex nose of tobacco, earth, leather, and black fruits - blackcurrants and blackberries. Tart cherry palate with green pepper; experience only marred by short finish.
