Delicious Notes Of Black Fruits & Spice
Description
The Carménère vines in Chile were mistaken for Merlot until the mid-1990s but today is it known as the country’s signature variety, as it arguably grows better in Chile than even its original homeland in southwest France. This is a fine, silky-smooth showcase of the grape, with notes of black cherries, spices and herbs. It’s a great match for pasta or lamb dishes.
Tasting Note
Leyda Carménère Reserva is true to the grape variety. It is highly expressive, clearly revealing black cherries, intermingled with spicy, herbal complexity, and a subtle note of truffle on the long finish.
