Miguel Torres 'Cordillera' Carmenere
(90pts)
Cordillera Carmenere has its origin in the famous Terroir of Peumo in the Cachapoal Valley. The valley is characterized by having a sub-humid Mediterranean climate, and its very warm days and very cold nights influenced by the Cachapoal River allow for a prolonged ripening period ideal for these vines. The vineyard is on a foothill, on granite soils of colluvial origin with a clay loam texture and the presence of stones, offering very good drainage and low fertility. This is ideal for controlling vigor and obtaining very limited production of an excellent Carmenere.
Great intensity of color. Its aromas powerfully express the character of the Carmenere varietal (forest fruits, eucalyptus, and leather), with notes of torrefaction – laurel and clove – licorice and black pepper. Great fullness on the palate and robust tannins. Retro-nasal aromas of toasted bread and spices ending in a long finish.
