Product Notes

Ventisquero Tara Red Wine 2 - Syrah is an exceptional Chilean wine produced in the Atacama Desert. Exhibiting potent intensity and refreshing acidity, it enchants the palate with a blend of sumptuous blackberry, blueberry, and spice flavours. The tantalising hint of black pepper leaves a delightful, lasting finish. Aged in French oak barrels, the wine emanates inviting aromas of dark fruit and earthy undertones. Its rich, bold character is perfect for pairing with robust, flavourful dishes. Expect a beautifully structured wine that goes through remarkable evolution when exposed to air, perfectly symbolising the distinctive terroir it hails from.

Tasting Notes

This is a deep ruby-red wine which reveals a mix of black fruits, herbs and graphite. This is a very particular and complex wine. It's fresh, with notes of wild herbs, spices and firm tannins. In the mouth, this medium-bodied wine displays delicious acidity, which lends interesting tension to the wine, as well as firm tannins. Very long in the finish. The calcareous soil of the second terrace of the River Huasco gives its characteristics to this very special wine. This is a completely unique and atypical wine, representing the chalky soil and climate of the coastal desert.
