Viu Manent Carmenere Reserva Estate Collection 2010

Member Review by Christy Canterbury MW:

Profoundly crimson. Like with the Casa Silva above, the first notable thing about the nose of this wine is its freshness. Scents of cedar, açai, blueberry and creosote draw in the taster. On the palate, there is moderate extract, which creates plumpness in the mid-palate. The acidity, however, is pronounced, and the tannins lend a hand to balance with their dustiness. The elevated alcohol is obvious ,yet it does allow for a medium-minus finish.

Viu Manent:

What exactly is one’s own? … ”That which identifies us and by which we can recognize ourselves.” We love our property, our family and our traditions. We love our work, which we see as the motor that can propel us toward fulfilling our dreams. We believe in transcendence, in putting our heart into things and that the only way to do something is to do it to the best of our abilities. We have a strong bond with wine; we love its living essence and its sensitivity. We believe that Chile is a privileged territory for the production of wines and that Colchagua is a magical valley where the soil, climate and grapes seem to be blessed. We believe in attention to detail and in respecting the environment. We believe that history and tradition provide us with knowledge and experience, while innovation and modernity help us to advance toward our goal. We believe in teamwork and in the talented, professional and committed people who work with us. “We are committed to transmitting this philosophy into our daily mission.” Read less
