Araucano Reserve Carmenere
A Bold Expression of Chile’s Wine Legacy
The Araucano Reserve Carmenere is a captivating red wine from the heart of Chile’s renowned Colchagua Valley. Made from the Carmenere grape, once thought to be extinct in its original French homeland, this wine has found a true home in Chile, offering rich, velvety textures and intense flavours.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red, this wine reveals aromas of dark berries, black cherry, and subtle hints of spice, with a whisper of tobacco and cocoa. On the palate, it’s smooth and full-bodied, boasting layers of ripe fruit complemented by soft tannins and a well-balanced acidity. The finish is long, elegant, and satisfying, making it a perfect choice for those who appreciate a bold, yet approachable wine.
Perfect Serve
Enjoy this Carmenere with hearty dishes such as grilled steaks, barbecued meats, or even a rich beef stew. It also pairs wonderfully with aged cheeses or a dark chocolate dessert for a truly indulgent experience.
Artisan Craftsmanship
Produced by Viña Araucano, this wine comes from a winery that prides itself on sustainable practices and dedication to quality. The Carmenere grapes are carefully selected from the estate’s oldest vines, allowing for a wine that truly reflects the terroir of the region.
