The Story
Bodega Volcanes de Chile Reserva Carmenere is a unique expression of Chile’s signature grape, specifically crafted to showcase the influence of volcanic soils. Produced by a winery dedicated to "volcanic viticulture," this wine is characterized by its deep violet colour and a complex bouquet that balances the varietal’s classic herbal notes with mineral depth. On the nose, it offers aromas of dark plums, black cherries, and a touch of black pepper, often underscored by a distinct "flinty" or smoky character. The palate is medium-to-full-bodied with soft, velvety tannins and a persistent finish that reveals hints of chocolate and spice.
