Carménère 2019

Carmenère is Chile's figurehead. A Bordeaux grape variety that was rediscovered in Chile in the 1980s after dying out in Europe during the 19th-century phylloxera plague is making a brilliant comeback here. Because in the sun-drenched Maipotal, the complexity and intense color of this grape variety can fully develop. The Carménère wines convince with a round taste with less acidity and tannins. Nevertheless, they impress with a piquant and very fruity aroma. Cassis, cherries, black currants, chocolate, leather, paprika and tobacco give the wine its earthy and fruity charm.

This wine allows dreaming of South America and surprises even connoisseurs - a real Chilean experience.
