Very light, almost clear, with a golden tinge. The nose is very pretty, subtle, with very nice white florals and tropical fruits with a background of sweet lemon. Tropical fruits and whit flowers show on the palate, too, leering with pineapple and key lime, trending toward Meyer lemon and ginger

Lots of spice in this red wine experience: leafy, fruity, aromas, with blackberry with pepper predominating into the front- and mid-palate. A medium-weight wine. Same peppery, leafy blackberry elements on end-palate and even in the finish. Moderate tannins, more fruity than woody. Good with white bean and pork loin stew.
Clear, medium intensity ruby with purple. Aromas of violet, bell pepper, dark fruits, and cedar. Dry on the palate with medium-high acidity, medium-full body, and light tannin. Flavors of cooked blackberry, hickory, molasses, and smoke. Pair with a hearty dish like chili. Recommended. RR WHO: Carmen WHAT: Carmenère WHERE: Apalta,
