Dark purple colour. Black berry fruits with earth and olives early. Decanted for an hour. Nose opened into berries, plum, fig, pepper. Still good acidity and strong tannins Matched against Prime Rib.

Decanted for 2,5 hours. This is a great wine. This carmenere is dense with oak notes and aroma of little fruits of the forest, like black currant. It will easily last 2-3 more years.

Inky, extracted, and oaky. Decanted for 4 hours. Prominent notes of vanilla and hazelnut followed by black fruits, plum and black tea. The barrel is overtly obvious. This is a big wine, nothing subtle or discreet here. More elegant on the palate than the nose after decanting. Silky tannins, med finish, well integrated alcohol.
