TASTING NOTES:

Incredibly lively ruby red in color with bluish rims, this special Carmenere is intense and
surprising at the same time. Its aromatic palette is very different from what we usually have in
wines of this variety. Everything comes from the special terroir on the stony hillside where these
vines are found. Very complex and mineral on the nose, xilex and powder appear at the beginning
along with notes of grapefruit peel. Rich and fruity aromas of currant and blueberry, soft notes of
cedar, tarragon, black pepper and a graphite background accompany the Bouquet.

On the palate it is juicy, lively and complex. Full of fruitiness, medium and deep structure, the
unique texture of its tannins makes this wine one that is both direct and elegant, and as it is tasted,
it shows all its personality.
