2010 Colchagua Valley Carmenere

The tannins are firm yet smooth, providing structure and depth, while the fruit intensity is pronounced, leaving a lasting impression. As a dry wine, it beautifully showcases the rich terroir of Colchagua, making it an excellent choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own. This vintage not only captures the essence of its region but also reflects the careful craftsmanship that goes into its production, resulting in a wine that is both sophisticated and approachable.

In recent years, Chile has increasingly produced incredible wines of exceptional value. With a setting influenced by the Andes Mountains, the Pacific Ocean, the Atacama Desert and even Antarctica, Chile is a diverse land with rocky foothills, lush valley floors and cool coastal zones. Chile gained international renown for its New World take on classic Bordeaux varieties. Interestingly, it's an obscure red Bordeaux variety—Carménère—that has become Chile's signature grape. But other Old World varieties do equally well in Chile; Pinot Noir, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay have all become mainstays of Chilean wine, exhibiting impressive levels of quality and balance in the country's distinct terroirs.
