Product Notes

Undurraga Carmenère wine hails from Chile's prominent wine-growing regions, delivering an exquisite tasting experience enveloped in deep ruby hues. This wine boasts intense aromas of red and black fruits, mingled subtly with notes of herbs and spices. It delights the palette with well-balanced acidity, silken tannins, and a flavour profile brimming with plummy fruitiness, delicate chocolate undertones, and a hint of wild smokiness. Aged for months in French oak barrels, Undurraga Carmenère carries a refined, lingering finish, making it an excellent accompaniment for hearty meat dishes and cheese boards.

Tasting Notes

An intense violet colour, this Carmenère delivers exuberant red fruit aromas, through to a fruity palate with vibrant notes of cherry. With a smooth texture this is a great easy drinking wine
