Reserva Colchagua Valley Carménère

Bland, flat and uninteresting. A bit of earth but mostly processed fruit. Part of my cheap winter reds purchase. Pass.

If every now and then you just need your Carmenere fix, this one will get the job done...

Beautiful expression of Carmenere. Great balance of fruit and dried herbs. Slight minty notes and soft in the palate

Visual: Clear, Bright. Black redish core, purple opaque core, medium legs,
Nose: bell pepper, olive, black cherry, plum, youthful
Palate: medium tannins, tobacco, sour cherries, rosemary, artichoke, medium length, medium alcohol, balanced.

Interesting flavor for cheap bottle. Probably too merlotish for me but does have cab hints as well.

Tasting at Cru.

Pretty good. Pairs well with leather couches and imitation Tiffany lamps. Wee bit overpriced from a wine bar, but still quite enjoyed it.

Not tannic but not smooth. Not spicy but with a little edge

Plum, bell pepper, olive, blk cherry,
Youthful vegetale
Medium round tannins.
Medium alchol
