2009 Carmen Gran Reserva Apalia Vineyard Carmenere


Wow - nice red. Carmenere is a varietal that doesn't get much love in the US. This one is from Chile and the Carmen winery. Big and lusty is what I love about his one - lotsa smoke and fruit, with just a hint of the tannins that give some backbone to the wine. Nice looong finish too. This is gonna go well with the grilled pork loin on the menu tonight.

Cheers!
