Undurraga Sibaris Carménère Gran Reserva 2020

Valle del Colchagua, Valle del Rapel, Region del Valle Central, ChileThis wine continues to improve with an enticing plummy savoury nose followed by a swath of lush dark fruit and a spicy, peppery undercurrent. Treve calls this smoked bay leaf on a bed of pipe tobacco, and that nails it. The tannins are fully dispersed, and the sweet fruit balances the final green kick that is carmenere. Corn and beef empanadas in Chile are a good match. Further north, beef tacos would do the trick equally well.Tasted: 24 March 2023Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
