Country: Chile

Region: Colchagua Valley

Grape Varietals: Carmenère 85%; Cabernet Franc 15%.

Barrel Ageing: 80% of the wine was aged for 16 months in new French oak barrels, and 20% in second-use French oak barrels.

Tasting Notes: The wine shows a deep red colour with purple undertones, very characteristic of Carmenère. The intense nose reveals aromas of black fruit, such as blackberry and blueberry, accompanied by pleasant spiced notes like bell pepper and black pepper, that together with the sweet aromas from the French oak deliver a very complex wine. On the palate the wine is rounded, extremely smooth and full-bodied, with a long, pleasing finish.

Alcohol: 14.5%
