Wine Shop Review: "Dark, statuesque wine with concentrated, potent aromas of black olive, herbs and mulled blackberry. Tastes like textbook Carmenère, but without any jammy overripeness. Flavor of racy spiced berry, olive and black pepper are all good, and there's that patented herbal, roasted quality on the finish, but not too much."
My Review: This wine had a distinct smell of pepper, and a green vegetable undertone like asparagus or green beans. It tasted pleasantly dry, with a bit of spicy dark berry, and was pleasantly dry.
I had this wine alone without food.
