92% Carmenere; 8% Petit Verdot. Carmenere is an offshoot of Cabernet Franc says Jancis R’s encyclopaedia. Ripe black fruited aromas with creme de cacao - vanilla coconut oak on nose and palate - overoaked IMO. What you might call an Heroic wine coupled with the ridiculously heavy bottle. You could do forearm curls with this bottle! Full bodied - solid, and a little square sided for my palate.

92% Carmenere 8% Petit Verdot. Very ripe fruit albeit savoury and very dusty. A little astringent on the finish. Very heavy bottle. 17.

Fantastic representation of my favorite item of the “Lost n’ found” department of life. Carmenère!
Blueberry, nutmeg with hints of chocolate. This wine is not only well structured and very seductive but also approachable. I am in love!

Black as night, wet animal fur (in a good way, I swear) and earth-worm-laden earth lead a palate as big and smooth as a velvet zeppelin. Black berries, dark undergrowth and tangy tannins till dawn that just translate to a nice long finish. So yummy, loved a fatty veal chop!
