Neyen 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon-Carmenère (Colchagua Valley)

Country: Chile /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon-Carmenère Colchagua Valley
Winery: Neyen /

Despite 2012 being a hot year with many overripe wines, this Cabernet-Carmenère blend opens with highly Chilean aromas of tobacco, bell pepper and eucalyptus. The palate is plush and saturated, with minty plum, olive and herbal berry flavors. A final wave of mint and herbs is in charge of an otherwise chocolaty finish. Drink through 2024.
