Miguel Torres 'Cordillera' Carmenere

RM158.00
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Cordillera Carmenere has its origin in the famous Terroir of Peumo in the Cachapoal Valley. The valley is characterized by having a sub-humid Mediterranean climate, and its very warm days and very cold nights influenced by the Cachapoal River allow for a prolonged ripening period ideal for these vines. The vineyard is on a foothill, on granite soils of colluvial origin with a clay loam texture and the presence of stones, offering very good drainage and low fertility. This is ideal for controlling vigor and obtaining very limited production of an excellent Carmenere.   Great intensity of color. Its aromas powerfully express the character of the Carmenere varietal (forest fruits, eucalyptus, and leather), with notes of torrefaction – laurel and clove – licorice and black pepper. Great fullness on the palate and robust tannins. Retro-nasal aromas of toasted bread and spices ending in a long finish.   Tim Atkin: 92Pts; Descorchados: 90Pts

Curico Valley

Backed by a history rooted in winemaking culture in Spain, Miguel Torres Chile arrived in the Curico Valley in 1979 after searching for a new location. On this journey, as well as finding excellent climatic conditions, the family has committed to innovating in wine production, incorporating stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels. Throughout Chile, our wineries have forged an identity and created unique products according to their climate, providing Miguel Torres Chile with varieties with the typical vinestocks and flavours of this country.

Today, Miguel Torres Chile also focuses its commitment on organic vine-growing and Fair Trade certification for various wines. These advances have helped the company to become more sustainable, and to implement several sustainable projects. With a presence in over 100 countries, the Miguel Torres Chile family winery has established itself over the past 30 years as one of Chile's main producers of high-quality wines, through its products’ identity, respect for the environment, and social responsibility.
