Mapu Cabernet Sauvignon Carmenère 2005

Region del Valle Central, ChileMapu means earth in the native Mapuche language of Chile and it's the earth that highlights the licorice and spice and cigar ash in this red. Made with purchased fruit this is entry-level stuff you can use around the barbecue, any sort of grilled meat dishes should work with it and help smooth out the dry leafy edges.Tasted: 06 April 2007Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
