Just as Malbec shines in Argentina, Carmenere, the forgotten grape of Bordeaux, excels in Chile, especially in warmer zones. On top of that, the price for good Carmenere from Chile is dirt cheap. This beauty from Natura shows notes of red currant and cherry, with a touch of oak spice and impressive balance.
