Description
The 2019 Vina Ventisquero Grey Carmenère is red-coloured Carménère which reveals the classic varietal notes, like green pepper, but in a gentle, well-rounded manner. With a spectacular nose of black fruit, a touch of earthiness and floral notes, such as violets. On the palate it’s medium to full bodied with a smooth mouthfeel, dusty tannin, and charismatic acidity. For flavors there’s wonderful blend of blackberries, along with black cherries, cocoa powder, and brown sugar. Then it finishes with black cherries, wood, and that dusty tannin. The Vina Ventisquero Grey Carmenère is matured in French oak barrels (34% new) for 18 months. The wine is then bottled and stored at the winery for a further 8 months in bottle before release. The Vina Ventisquero Grey Carmenère is a beautiful wine. Viña Ventisquero is one of Chile’s leading wineries.
