This wine has a really complex and dynamic nose, showing a lot of earthiness along with spice and fruit. Chocolate, coffee, cedar, mushroom, raspberry and cherry aromas all come together beautifully in this wine. The palate is also quite nice, delivering bright raspberry, cherry and currant flavors as well as some chocolate and spice. And while there’s a lot going on, it’s not too heavy. The mouthfeel is fabulously lush. The acidity is good. It finishes with lingering currant and raspberry flavors and a touch of vanilla.

At the end of the 1990s, Rafael and José Guilisasti were very visionary in perceiving that the market was beginning to change, and global consumers were beginning to consciously choose the products they were consuming, not just in terms of their health, but also due to its environmental and social effects.
Together with visionary winemaker Álvaro Espinoza, they began converting a conventional Chilean winery into a 100% organic and biodynamic winery, with the firm objective of creating wines of the highest quality while respecting people and the environment.
After more than 2 decades, what began as a dream is today a full portfolio of products, with recognitions both domestic and international, that meet the needs of today’s consumer.
Carménère is a red wine grape variety that is originally from Bordeaux, France. It was widely planted in the Médoc region but it's believed that the variety has been all but extinct in France since the phylloxera epidemic of the late 19th century. Today it is mainly grown in Chile, where it has become one of the country's signature grape varieties.
The grape produce wine that are deeply colored and have a rich, complex flavor profile, with notes of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, as well as a distinct green bell pepper or herbaceousness, which gives the wine a unique character. They can also have a smoky or chocolate character when aged in oak. They tend to be medium to full-bodied, with moderate acidity and moderate to high tannins. It pairs well with red meats and flavorful, spicy dishes.
