Rich plum, blackcurrant and cassis show through on this full-bodied wine. Tannins and spicy oak are present and bring some chocolate and smoky coffee notes. Has some bright red raspberry tones as well, while maybe a touch rustic, its really a great deal.


Terrapura Carmenere Terrapura Carmenere $12.00

Lovely soft green pepper nose with mineral and an herbal touch blended with tobacco and flowers. Black fruits and dried figs on the nose combine with soft and juicy tannins and concentrated fresh fruit flavors. Fire up the BBQ and grill some steaks or Portobello mushrooms to eat alongside a glass. It would be great with Mexican food as well with its subtle spice notes.
