WINE DESCRIPTION
Falernia Carmenère Reserva is a premium red wine produced by Viña Falernia, a renowned winery located in the Elqui Valley of Chile. The wine is made from the Carmenère grape variety, which is known for its rich and complex flavors. The vineyards are situated at high altitudes, which results in a longer growing season and a unique terroir that imparts distinctive characteristics to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is full-bodied, with notes of black fruit, spices, and a hint of vanilla. It is a perfect choice for those who appreciate bold and flavorful red wines.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Falernia Carmenère Reserva is a deep and intense wine.Aromas of ripe blackberries and cherries mingle with notes of tobacco, leather, and cedar. On the palate, the wine has a rounded, full-bodied texture, with a complex balance of ripe fruit, sweet spices, and savory notes. The finish is long and lingering, leaving behind flavors of dark chocolate and vanilla. For a Carmenère, this is a surprisingly smooth and elegant wine. Enjoy with grilled meats or roast poultry.
