Carmen – Sauvignon Blanc Gran Reserva 2025
Casablanca Valley – Chile 🇨🇱

Overview
A refreshing and youthful 100% Sauvignon Blanc from one of Chile’s premier cool-climate regions. Casablanca Valley is known for its coastal influence and ocean breezes that give whites their piercing freshness.

Aromas & Flavors
Classic grassy notes, an abundance of passion fruit, and a sharp lemon peel zest that lingers persistently. Bright and aromatic with a clean edge.

Mouthfeel
Crisp, zesty, and linear in structure. The acidity is razor-sharp, carrying the citrus and tropical fruit flavors through a refreshing finish.

Food Pairings
Perfect alongside ceviche, sushi, goat cheese salads, or even grilled asparagus.

Verdict
A vibrant Sauvignon Blanc that screams coastal freshness—youthful, sharp, and highly refreshing.

Lovely deep colour, lots of fruit with oak and vanilla. Well worth the £12.95 from The Wine Society. A firm favourite and will stock up more of the 2018 vintage. — 10 months ago

" 30 months in Oak barrels adds a vanilla flavor to the beautiful ripe fruit in this structured wine." Made from the Noble tempranillo grapes, it's a wine for special moments. " — 4 years ago
