Tarapaca Carmenère Reserva 2002

Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileMint and sausage with a good dose of sweaty leather mark the nose of this distinctive carmenère that is streaked with cardamom for good measure. Minty smoky, leather, leafy, fruit flavours dissolve into a lean dry finish. The finish is quite smoky and leathery but where's the fruit?Tasted: 12 July 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
