DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Casas del Bosque is a family-owned Chilean winery based in the Casablanca Valley. This Reserva Carmenere comes from vineyards in the Rapel Valley, with fruit grown on loamy alluvial soils with good drainage close to the Cachapoal River.
At the winery the grapes are destemmed, crushed into stainless steel tanks and fermented with selected yeasts. Carmenere can show a green, bell pepper side, and here careful handling of malolactic fermentation during ageing keeps it in balance. Expect a deep red color with a garnet hue, black cherry, plum and dry leaf aromas, a hint of green pepper, and notes of chocolate and spice. The palate is soft and plump with supple tannins and good length. Easy to like, with enough character to stay interesting.
Serve at cool room temperature, around 60 to 65°F, in a standard red wine glass. It is a natural match for lamb, from roast leg to minced lamb kebabs with salsa verde, and also works with smoky bacon, grilled peppers, zucchini and eggplant, or mildly spicy Mexican dishes.
Bottle size: 750ml
