Merchant's description

A ripe full bodied wine with concentrated plum and strawberry fruit flavours and cinnamon notes with soft tannins on the long finish. The grapes were grown in Chiles Rapel Valley, an area with a long tradition of winemaking. The region has the perfect weather for growing grapes with clearly defined seasons; cool, rainy winters and long warm summers with high daytime temperatures, moderated by cool nights. This allows the grapes to slowly ripen and develop complex flavours. This wine is a great match to pizza and tomato based pasta dishes. Santa Carolina
