Grape Variety

Carmenere

Producer

Vina La Rosa SA

The Carménère grape originated in Bordeaux but is now more commonly found in Chile. A late-ripening variety, Carménère thrives in Chile’s warm, Mediterranean climate. The Cornellana Winemaker’s Selection Barrel Reserve is a heady, powerfully structured red wine with overt notes of roasted coffee beans, dark fruit, cedar, and subtly smoky nuances. Quite youthful. Needs time for its grippy tannins and oaked flavours to soften. 2024-2028 – JB
