More informations about the variety Carmenère

Velvety, deep reds with a dark robe and round tannins, showing aromas of blackberry, plum, ripe red pepper, dark chocolate, coffee and gentle spice. Warm, supple finish. Absolute star of Chile (Colchagua, Cachapoal, Maipo) where it was rediscovered in 1994, long confused with Merlot. A historic Bordeaux variety that nearly vanished after phylloxera, a cross of Cabernet Franc × Gros Cabernet.

Wine valley in northern Chile 20 km from the Pacific, bordering the Atacama. Limestone soils rare in Chile and coastal "Camanchaca" fog bring minerality and tension. Signature Chardonnay in white: fine and mineral with hallmark notes of lemon, white apple, white flowers, soft vanilla and a chalky saline touch, taut long palate — barrel-aged. Brilliant Syrah: spicy and saline near the coast (pepper, black olive), fruity inland.
