Santa Ema 2009 Amplus Old Vine Carignan (Peumo)

Country: Chile / Amplus Old Vine
Variety: Carignan Peumo
Winery: Santa Ema /

This Carignan from Cachapoal is one of Santa Ema’s best wines year in and year out. This vintage is woodsy and dark on the nose, with boysenberry jam and shoe-polish aromas. It’s tannic and powerful for sure, with flavors of ripe tomato, graphite, black plum, herbs and even salt. A rugged, briny tasting finish confirms the inherent rustic character of Carignan. Drink through 2019.
