This juicy, fruit-forward organically-grown Carmenère is blended with 15% Syrah that literally burst from the glass. About 50% of the wine was aged in oak then back blended with the tank lot, giving the aromatics plenty of ripe raspberry notes. The flavors are packed with soft fruit, spicy touches and supported by full tannins and finished with 14% alcohol. This is a great value in a very drinkable fruity red wine.
