What to Expect

Carmenère is one of a small group of wines that thrives in its adopted land but struggles to gain acceptance at home. It still is used on occasion in France's Bordeaux region where it adds color and complexity to blends with its distinctive mélange of smoky, herbal and gamy tones. In South America, particularly Chile, it ripens fully and the wines take on added layers of dark berry fruit that gives it a balance rarely achieved in France.

A tão falada safra histórica de vinhos tinto reserva da Casillero 2007 realmente produziu uma vinho diferenciado. Não sei dizer o quanto superior aos anteriores já que nunca fui grande consumidor do vinho. Mas o Carmenère está excelente. Aroma, achocolatado e frutas vermelhas. Fica uma leve impressão de que falta algo, o gosto não é tão persistente. Mas pelo preço no Brasil de R$ 33,00 é um vinho espetacular.

Im sure it's one of the best value for the price wines in Australia.
Chilean Carmenere is exquisite, and it's history even more, Carmener was thought extinct after a disease in the grape, but some years ago it was rediscovered in Chile and it absolutely blooms!
Try it and then try other Carmeneres.

For this price range, I give it an A! It's complex enough, with flavors of chocolate and spice, and a nice finish. Just a great go-to wine that complements food nicely and that I could drink every day (esp. at this price!).

I bought the first bottle of this at Trader Joe's--where I am often disappointed. Not this time. Less than $9, chocolaty, toasty. Good tannins. I make beef stew with cumin and the bottle just disappears. I wonder if it could age, but I can never wait that long.

Really great value. The Carmenere is definately the best of the wines they offer... kinda spicy, with dark fruits, a hints of tobacco and dark chocolate, with a subtle oaky finish. delish!

This wine comes from Chile, not from Spain, and is a very fine representative of New World wines. It's made 100% from Carmenere (a native French grape that went completely extinguished in Europe after the phylloxera plague) that was planted in Chile before it disappeared from the Old Continent terroirs.
Colour: lovely, lively ruby with a hint of purple on the edges.
Character: soft and round, medium bodied, pleasant tannins, restrained acidity, nice balance of sugars
Tasting notes: a light, fruity wine (leading plum and black cherry notes) dark chocolate, coffee and read more...
