Blend of 91% Carmenere, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 4% Mourvedre. The smoky, medium+ intensity nose is layered over aromas of currants and herbs. It's medium to medium-full bodied on the palate with clean, balanced acidity and flavours of wild herbs, oak spice, and currant. It's ripe with smooth and supple tannins, with very good acidity lingering on the long finish. Tasted Nov. 2022.
