Tasting- San Elias Carmenere


Name:  San Elias
Variety:  Carmenere
Region:  Central Valley
Country:  Chile
Year:  2010
Price:  $5.95
Review:  The grapes for this Carménère are selected from vineyards in the Central Valley. Beautiful red fruit aromas. Supple and round in the mouth, the wine pairs well with full flavored cheeses and lamb.
My Review:  This wine was a nice burgundy red color with a spicy/hot, mild tobacco smell.  It had an interesting taste of spicy pepper.  It was dry and a little tongue tingling. 

I tried this wine without food.
