The Wine The Wine
Chile
Region:Maipo Valley
Chile's signature varietal is Carménère, described by many experts as a 'halfway house between Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot', which is spot on. Take the plummy juiciness of Merlot, the cassis fruitiness and tannic qualities of Cabernet Sauvignon and there you have it - Carménère. This limited-edition release is from the winemaking frontrunners in the Maipo Valley - Perez Cruz. It's a complex, elegant red, loaded with black fruit, earthy aromas and a well-defined spiciness. Bring on the curry - this is a top match!
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Germán Lyon
Viña Perez Cruz is a multi-award-winning winery, receiving rave reviews from customers and wine writers alike. Their immaculate vineyards can be found in the Maipo Valley, long regarded as Chile's premium red-grape-producing region. Their vines are planted on a variety of soil types that imbue the grapes with distinct flavour characteristics. Winemaker Germán Lyon firmly believes that every bottle of wine produced carefully reflects the 'terroir' of Maipo Valley.
"The Carménère for our Limited Edition comes from a selection of blocks that are carefully managed with lower yields for increased intensity. Aromatically, it is electrifying, with complex, elegant notes of ripe black fruits, red apple skin, olives, earthy aromas and spices, complemented with Maipo Alto's own notes of fine cooking herbs. It is a balanced wine, deep with aromatic layers." - Germán Lyon, Winemaker.
