I'm not the biggest Carmenere fan and this wine will also not make me one. But, in all fairness, this one was certainly an OK wine. One day 1 I found it a bit to big and lush, on day 2 and day 3 the wine was a bit rounder, it softened up a bit and juist seemed more balanced.
Black and red fruit, very spicy, oak and vanille. Tannins were ripe and nicely integrated, acid was on the low side but enough.
