Description
The Carménère vines in Chile were mistaken for Merlot until the mid-90s. When they realised what grape they actually had, the Chileans began marketing Carménère as their signature variety, as it arguably grows better in Chile than even its original homeland in southwest France.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.Product Reviews
In The Press
Irish Independent
Ripe black and blue fruit meets herbaceous tobacco leaf, peppery spice and mocha-vanilla oak notes in this earthy, fresh and well-balanced expression of the Bordeaux-born grape that Chile has come to call its own. Pair with Chinese-spiced duck, Mexican mole, or slow-cooked hotpots.
