Tasting Notes
Deep red in color with violet glints. On the nose the aromas are of red and black fruit, including black currant and blackberry, accompanied by a subtle note of black pepper. On the palate the wine has smooth, rounded tannins and moderate acidity that lend the wine a nice balance on the mid-palate. The finish is long, with a hint of cassis on the aftertaste.
Food Pairing
Versatile to accompany a variety of dishes from pasta to Chilean food like charquicán vegetable-jerky stew or Chilean-style corn humitas with onion and tomato salad. Spiced dishes. Service temperature of 16–17ºC. Cellar up to 4 years.
