the wine
Carmenere is Chile's signature grape, a variety the country rescued and made its own, and this bottling shows off its plush, spicy character. We pour it with grilled steak, chorizo, and anything touched by smoke or pepper. Give it a little time in the glass and the savory side comes forward.
tasting notes
Deep red with violet overtones. Blackberry and blueberry with black pepper, cinnamon and roasted coffee. Complex and persistent, with black fruit, spice, chocolate and earthy notes over velvety, massive tannins.
shipping
Orders ship in protective packaging within 2 business days. An adult signature (21+) is required on delivery. We hold shipments during extreme heat or cold and email you first.

from Morandé.
Morande is closely tied to the early development of Chile's Casablanca Valley, part of the pioneering movement that showed cooler coastal ground could yield distinctive wines, and it now draws fruit from across several of the country's valleys.
