Bordeaux Supérieur Carménère

A very well balanced Merlot. Great fruit, but kept in check by a nice tannin structure, tobacco and great earthy notes.

Soft but structured

Nice wine and a super value

Good rated by my husband. I enjoyed it more. We paired it with marinated pork so it was a great combo. For me closer to a 9

Not a fan, too chalky for my taste

Kind of plain. There was a recognizable taste, but it didn't wow me like a lot of zins do.

Very earthy. Enough maturity.

Ahhhhmazing Bordeaux blend! It even paired well with sea bass. Delicious at this age but age worthy as well! Brambly stewed fruit compote, prune, pomegranate, and light smooth tannins/acid. Very balanced, alcoholic, concentrated red/purple fruits.
