Tasting- San Elias Carmenere 2010


Date of Tasting: Thursday, March 22, 2012
Variety: Carmenere (100%)
Region: Colchagua Valley
Country: Chile
Year: 2010
Price: $5.95
Shop Preview: The grapes for this Carmenere are selected from vineyards in the Central Valley. Beautiful red fruit aromas. Supple and round in the mouth, the wine pairs well with full flavored cheeses and lamb.
My Review: This wine is a fantastic bargain red with aromas and flavors extremely similar to that of a Bordeaux wine. It was dark and rich, and felt very velvety going down.
With or Without Food: Without Food
