Product Notes

Chakana Estate Selection Red Blend Wine is a delightfully refined beverage hailing from Argentina. With vivid deep-red shades and a captivating bouquet of bold red fruits, underpinned by subtle vanilla and tobacco hints from its oak cask aging, it's an indulgence for the palate. Its opulence continues in the taste, marrying well-structured tannins with a delightful blend of plum, blackberry, and a whisper of spice. This wine offers a sublime balance and a lingering, sophisticated finish. Pair it with robust cheeses or hearty red meat dishes for an exquisite culinary experience. A charming addition to any wine enthusiast's collection.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of flowers, blackberries, camphor, forrest floor and subtle new oak emerge from this full bodied, textured, opulent blockbuster. Extremely pure and rich.
