VARIETY  PREMIUM CARMENÈRE  (100%)  WINERY SELECTION

ORIGIN  Central Valley, Chile.

VINEYARDS

Vineyards located on the southern edge of the Maule Valley. The soils are thin and low in fertility, with a clayey structure. Summers are dry and very hot, ensuring full ripening of this grape, which truly benefits from complete and uniform ripening. We included 10% Merlot from the Alto Maipo Valley. This condition gives the wine delicate floral and fruity aromas.

Vineyard yield: 12 tons/ha. 

Harvest date: Second week of April.

TECHNICAL NOTES

The grapes were hand-picked in mid-April, providing a good balance between sugars, acids, and tannins. Fermentation took place at 28-29°C, with a 6-day post-fermentation maceration. Ninety percent of this wine was aged in French and American oak for 18 months, and the remainder came from stainless steel cellars, providing fruity aromas and freshness. This wine has not been treated or filtered to preserve its natural aromas and structure.

TASTING NOTES

Purple cherry red with vivid violet edges. A wine with intense aromas, dominated by black fruits such as blackberries and black cherries, blending with the toasted notes of coffee and tobacco derived from barrel aging. A delicious, full-bodied wine with persistent aromas layered by sweet, round tannins. Despite being a young wine, its balanced structure and proper ripeness allow it to be consumed now, or to continue developing favorably for several years.

SERVE: 17°C. Recommended with all red meats, lamb, and spiced dishes.
