Family Reserve Carménère
This all leads to a palate that has vibrant, simple, crunchy red fruit with some generous, fleshy presence at the plush finish.
This is a rich and suave take on the genre with an array of earthy ripe-plum aromas.

Tasting Notes
Ruby red color. Herbaceous nose with hints of toasted black pepper. The palate is lush with red fruit and berries, supported by the balanced oaking that provides chocolate and roasted Colombian coffee notes. The acidity is elegantly balanced and the tannins are marked, without seeking to be invasive and the finish is long and slow, a perfect example of great Carménère from Rapel Valley.
Food Pairing
Leg of lamb, confit of Peking Duck with orange sauce or truffles with earthy textures.
Winemaking Notes
Fermentation between 27°C to 29°C to obtain rich color and structure. It is completed and complemented with malolactic fermentation. The wine then ages for 16 months in new French barrels.
