Odfjell Aliara 2013

Concentrated deep violet in color. The nose is attractive and intense with a range of aromas from the different varieties in the blend, including nuts such as hazelnuts, dates, and dried figs, as well as floral notes recalling jasmine and roses. The palate is sophisticated, intense, and juicy and complemented by chocolate, coffee, and tobacco leaves. The finish is long with ripe and velvety tannins. An unforgettable experience.

Blend: 65% Carignan, 20% Syrah, 15% Malbec Organic

A stunning wine that shows what's possible in Chile if a winemaker strives for clarity and vitality. Extremely fresh for a wine that's already five years old. The blackcurrant and blackberry notes leap out at you. On the palate it's just as exciting with a racy energy and a very long finish that keeps pumping out the fruit. Drink or hold.
