Viña Tarapacá Tarapacá Gran Reserva Carmenère 2022 750ml

Concentrated and deep, with peppery blackberries, thyme, tapenade and dark cherries. Full-bodied and round on the palate, with very fine-grained tannins that prop up the dark fruit in the center palate. Long, juicy and flavorful finish. Drink or hold.

Wonderfully juicy, pulling from a deep well of concentrated floral black cherry, raspberry and plum flavors, with subtle loam and chrysanthemum nuances folding in around smooth, mineral-tinged tannins. Drink now through 2034. 7,300 cases made, 200 cases imported.

The 2022 Gran Reserva Carmenere is dark, spice-driven and herbal on the nose, with a lovely concentration and hints of snappy tension in the mouth. It closes with a vibrant, clean finish framed with dusty, fine-grained tannins that maintain impressive delineation.
