Wine Description
The Story
Grape varieties: Syrah
Origin: Maule Valley
Ageing: Aged for 9 months in French oak (30% new Oak and 70% oak second year)
Tasting notes (September 2008):
Intense dark cherry color. Expressive aromas with notes of torrefaction and redcurrrant jam as well as touches of tobacco, juniper, and lactic overtones. On the palate it is characterized by its fullness: robust tannins, retro-nasal aromas of licorice and spices with a long and elegant finish.
Serving suggestions:
Ideal with small game dressed with sweet sauces such as those of autumnal red fruits. Sublime with meaty textured fish cooked on a grill such as tuna in soy sauce.
