The grape

Carménère

Best known in Chile

Once a Bordeaux grape, now Chile's signature red. Soft and plummy, with black fruit, spice and a distinctive green pepper note that gives it a savoury lift. Smooth tannins make it easy to drink young, and it is a natural match for grilled meat.

Where it's from

Rapel Valley

Chile

A large Chilean region south of Santiago, made up of the Cachapoal and Colchagua valleys. A warm, Mediterranean climate makes ripe, rounded reds, particularly Carmenère, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Wines labelled Rapel often blend fruit from both valleys. Generous, crowd-pleasing styles.

Love the winery

Casas Del Bosque produces some excellent wines; their chardonnay, in a good year, is the best from North or South America and in an ordinary year it's still very good. Their carmenere is as good as one will find anywhere, but then there are not that many houses still working with that grape - recommended.
