Arboleda 2011 Carmenère (Colchagua Valley)

Country: Chile / Colchagua Valley
Variety: Carmenère
Winery: Arboleda /

Raw-cut wood, vanilla, herbs and hard spice scents define the nose on this quality Carmenère. In the mouth, tomatoey acidity is offset by weighty berry fruit and creamy oak. Flavorwise, this is saucy, meaty, a touch stewy and herbal, just like the variety is known to be.
