WINE DESCRIPTION
Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is a premium wine produced by Viña Carmen, one of Chile's oldest and most respected wineries. The grapes are sourced from the Maipo Valley, a renowned appellation for Cabernet Sauvignon. The vineyards are located at the foothills of the Andes Mountains, where the vines benefit from the cool breezes and mineral-rich soils. The wine is aged in French oak barrels for 12 months, adding complexity and depth to the wine. The style of the wine is full-bodied and elegant, with ripe black fruit flavors, hints of vanilla and spice, and a long, smooth finish. Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is a perfect choice for special occasions or to pair with grilled meats and hearty dishes.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is a complex and deeply-structured red wine.On the nose, aromas of ripe cherry, blackberry, and cassis are complemented by hints of spice, roasted coffee, and dark chocolate. On the palate, this full-bodied wine displays a balanced acidity and tannins that carry the flavors of dark fruits and spices to a long, lingering finish. Enjoy this wine with a charcuterie plate, steak, or richly-flavored pasta dishes.
