Tasting Note

This special carmenere is both intense and surprising. Its aromatic palette is very different from the one normally exhibited by this variety. It all comes from the special terroir of the rocky slope where its vines are grown. Its bouquet is completed with pleasant and fruity aromas of sour cherries and blueberries. It is juicy, bracing and sanguineous. Filled with fruitiness, with a medium yet deep structure, the unique texture of its tannins makes this wine an outspoken and elegant one, which gradually shows its whole personality as it's being served.

Product Notes

Caliterra Pétreo Carmenère is a premium red wine that comes from the Colchagua Valley in Chile. This wine is made entirely from the Carmenère grape, which is native to the Bordeaux region in France but is now predominantly grown in Chile. The nose of this wine is full of intense blackberry, black cherry, and earthy notes, while the palate is equally robust and juicy with flavors of dark berries, chocolate, and vanilla. The tannins in Caliterra Pétreo Carmenère are firm yet velvety, giving the wine a long and satisfying finish. This wine pairs perfectly with grilled meats, game dishes, and strong cheeses.
