El Incidente – Fourth Edition 2011

Tasting Notes:

Deep and intense violet in color. The nose is elegant, complex, and fruity with aromas of underbrush, black fruits, and game meat, as well as notes of black pepper (very characteristic of the La Capilla Vineyard) and blond tobacco. The palate has tremendous structure and complexity with the chalky tannins typical of the La Capilla terroir that lead to a long, persistent finish.

Variety:

Carménère 91%, Malbec 7%, Petit Verdot 2%.

Viñedos:

The grapes for this wine come from a selection from Viu Manent’s best vineyards in the Colchagua Valley. The Carménère comes from the La Capilla Vineyard, the Malbec from the San Carlos Vineyard, and the Petit Verdot from the El Olivar Vineyards.
