Product Notes

Miguel Torres Cordillera Carignan wine is a sumptuous Chilean blend made predominantly from old-vine Carignan. Exhibiting a brilliant, deep cherry hue, it's known for its rich, resplendent bouquet featuring distinguished notes of blackcurrant, blueberries, and cherries, intertwined with complex touches of spice and a hint of oak. On the palate, it effortlessly marries robust acidity with a full body and velvety tannins, leading to an enduringly opulent finish. Pair this masterful wine with red meat or sharp cheeses to truly indulge in its delightful harmony of flavours. An excellent addition to any wine collection, epitomising Chilean viticulture's splendour.

Tasting Notes

Intensely pigmented colour of ruby. Floral and fruity aroma on a background of toasted notes from the cask. On the palate it’s expansive and develops beautifully. The notes in its aroma are now complemented by hints of bay and mint.
