Fresh and juicy, with a layer of chrysanthemum and pink peppercorn up front and a plush core of fresh raspberry and plum, with a subtle mineral underpinning and fresh acidity stretching out the finish around a note of cocoa powder. Drink now through 2033. 50,000 cases made, 500 cases imported.

A fresh, spicy carmenere with tapenade and a touch of black bean puree to the vibrant fruit. Dark cherries and notes of smoked meat. Fruity and nicely chewy on the palate with slightly steely tannins and a flavorful finish. Better in one more year.

The 2022 Gran Reserva Carmenere is dark, spice-driven and herbal on the nose, with a lovely concentration and hints of snappy tension in the mouth. It closes with a vibrant, clean finish framed with dusty, fine-grained tannins that maintain impressive delineation.

The 2022 Carménère Gran Reserva originates from Isla de Maipo. Aged for eight months in French and American oak barrels, this purple-hued wine presents an ashy nose accompanied by blackberry and subtle herbal notes. Indulgent, rich and clingy on the palate, it lingers with its herbal characteristics. The 2022 embodies the essence of concentrated Carménère from Chile.

A fruit-forward nose is followed by a palate of toasted oak, red berry and grassy flavors. It has smooth round tannins and optimal acidity, making this Carménère an excellent match to a meaty lasagna.
