Why we chose it

“Chilean Carmenere at a very honest price — herbaceous, dark fruit, a hint of spice. Chile’s signature grape at its most accessible.”

About this wine

A Chilean Classic with a Bold, Spicy Kick

Tinamou Carmenere is a rich, full-bodied red that captures the soul of Chile's most iconic grape. Deep in colour and intense on the palate, it opens with notes of ripe blackberries and a hint of dark chocolate, while subtle spice and earthy undertones bring warmth and complexity.

This wine is made for those who enjoy bold reds with structure and a smooth finish. Ideal with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or simply savoured slowly on a quiet evening in, it delivers both character and drinkability in equal measure.

About the producer

Tinamou — named after the elusive South American bird — is a Chilean wine brand producing clean, expressive varietal wines from the country's sun-drenched valleys. The range spans Carmenère — Chile's signature grape — alongside Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc-Chardonnay blends, all crafted to deliver the fresh fruit character and natural balance that Chilean winemaking consistently produces at this level.

Bang on Carmenere!

This is an absolute beauty - just as described.
If you are a Malbec drinker as I was, I’ve moved on to this Chilean champ!!

Thanks, Daniel — we’re so pleased you enjoyed the Tinamou Carménère! It’s a cracking Chilean red with that same smooth, juicy style that Malbec lovers often fall for. Great to hear it’s hit the spot — a real gem from Chile’s Central Valley.
