The grapes

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.

Syrah

Best known in Northern Rhône, Washington State

A dark, spicy red grape. Blackberry, black pepper, smoked meat and violets, with firm structure. Elegant and savoury in the Northern Rhône, in places like Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie; in Australia the same grape goes by Shiraz.

Where it's from

Colchagua Valley

Chile

Part of the Rapel Valley, south of Santiago, and one of Chile's best-known red wine regions. Warm and sunny, it suits full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, Syrah and Malbec. Vineyards nearer the coast are now adding fresher styles too. Rich, ripe, polished reds with real crowd appeal.
