2012 Valle De Elqui Carmenere Syrah

Mayu La Compania Vineyard is a striking red wine that perfectly embodies the harmonious blend of Carmenere and Syrah from the picturesque Valle de Elqui region. This 2012 vintage showcases a medium to full-bodied profile, offering a delightful balance of richness and freshness. The acidity is pronounced, delivering a bright and lively character that livens the palate.
