Situated in the Colchagua Valley in Chile, the wine makes at Casa Lapostolle have made a fantastic wine. Like in my early post, this is my first introduction to a brand new grape; carmenere. It's very important as a wine to broaden your knowledge beyond the sterotypical grapes such as pinot, chardonay, cabernet sauvgion, merlot, syrah, and riesling. There is so much more out there if you're willing to try. I know it can be difficult to drop $20 on a bottle you have no idea what you expect. In my experience you're happy that you tried something new. On to the wine! This a multi-dimensional with a earthy layered structure of a variety of intense dark and spicy fruits. Before you drink, I recommend you decant for at least an hour so you can taste how good this wine can be. Totally seek this out!
