  Dark purple colour. Wild strawberry, bitter cherry, black pepper, and vanilla, all with the characteristic carmenere sharp herbs, the blend with the secreto grape gives a smooth fullness enhancing the overall effect.

  Nice, but a little young. A touch of green on the finish. But a nice flavor with not much nose.

  Deep purple, aromas of green peppers, black pepper, cherry, and vanilla.
  The palate is rich and mouth filling, concentrated and lingering cherry vanilla, spicy pepper finish.
  
  Will review again in a more elaborate way, had all of these wines 12 hours ago, and only took brief notes due to the lack of time.

  Not a bad inexpensive carmenere. Much more fruit than in many others I've tried.
  When I had a taste this wine had already been opened, and recorked the day prior.

  interesting nose - bit of menthol with the characteristic carmenere herbiness. some pine, forest floor, maybe violets or lavender in there too - like a French country wine, say Provencal
