Arriero Carmenere - Case of 6

Sorry, this item is no longer available

Rich-textured, cherry-scented Carmenère with hints of leather and liquorice and a delicious hazelnut finish. This is mellow, approachable red, with soft tannins, a lively, ripe character, and masses of complexity to keep your tastebuds guessing. Chilean Carmenère at its hearty best.

Chile's Maipo region is bounded by the Andes Mountains to the East and the Pacific coast to the West. Within this valley is Arriero, a premium area famed for its distinctive wines radiating varietal expression and complexity. Winemaker Roberto Carranca and his team ensure that a portion of this red rests in French oak barrels for six months to add smoothness and complexity.

Great discovery

Very pleased to have become acquainted with this variety. Easily beats the mainstream grapes at this price. Very balanced, honest, good casual flavour for no fuss pleasure.

Get Chile in when it's chilly out

Yes, I recommend this

Carmenere is always a favourite grape of mine and this example certainly does not disappoint. A great wine for sipping in front of a wood fire on a winter night.

Yes, I recommend this

Like all M&S wines you rarely get a bad one, it is the price that determines a purchase or not and when M&S have a half price offer it's time to place an order.
