Click here to become a Premium Member and see them now.This blend of 85% Carmenère and 15% Cabernet Franc has a fresh, lifted, medium-high to highly aromatic nose featuring elegantly balanced herbaceous, red & black fruit, chocolate, and sandalwood aromas. It's well-structured on the dry, medium to medium-full bodied palate with lovely, very nicely balanced aroma replays joined by spicy notes on the flavour profile.
