Tinajas del Maule Ruben Y Flora Cabernet Sauvignon Carmenère Reserva 2017
Maule, Valle del Claro, Valle del Maule, Region del Valle Central, ChileA smoky, savoury, leafy, meaty nose with a solid dose of medicine chest opens this old style Chilean. Bright red cassis is mixed with dried herbs and peppercorn to a soft, round smoky red fruit finish. The tannins are silky, the acidity bright and enough to keep this aloft to partner with your fire-grilled lamb or beef. Old school but food-friendly. Think grilled lamb chops with a chimichurri sauce.Tasted: 24 February 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $21.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
