Description
In a nutshell:
A smooth and silky biodynamic Chilean Carignan from a unique wild vineyard in the Colchagua Valley.
The lowdown:
Carignan is a relative rarity in Chile and in addition to that it's unlikely you'll drink a wine originating from as wild a vineyard this. However don't let that put you off, this natural wine, grown and made in a truly artisan manner, is also delicious and refined. It undergoes spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts and is aged for 18 months in old French oak barrels before being bottled unfined and unfltered. It has fresh and vibrant aromas of blackberries and ripe plums followed by flavours of cherries and strawberries. With delicate and soft tannins and an excellent balancing acidity the overall feel is elegant and ripe as it leads to nicely dry and lengthy finish.
When to drink:
Lively, fruity and not too heavy this is a very versatile wine to drink by itself or with many different foods; spicy north African cuisine works well as do most most white meats.
