Product Notes

Errazuriz Aconcagua Alto Carmenère is a Chilean red wine of remarkable distinction. Boasting verdant vineyard origins in the Aconcagua Valley, it presents a rich and complex blend of ripe black and red fruits, hints of spices, and dark chocolate. The palate enjoys rounded tannins, integrated seamlessly with the inserts of savoury nuances and a hint of smokiness, culminating in a robust, enduring finish. Matured in French oak barrels, its rich depth and full-bodied elegance make it an excellent companion to red meats or strong cheeses. This is a grand demonstration of Chile's prowess in crafting superior quality carménère.

Tasting Notes

The 2017 vintage of Aconcagua Alto Carmenère displays a beautiful cherry red color with violet hues. The nose delivers black cherries, cigar box, black olives, roasted red pepper and a soft hint of ripe blackberries. With an elegant entrance, the palate offers red and black fruits accompanied by soft notes of tobacco, cloves and some bitter chocolate. With silky tannins, it delivers a great sensation of freshness and good volume, with a long and pleasant finish.
