Carmen Gran Reserva Carmenere (750ml)

Sourced from El Peñasco vineyard, located in Carmen’s Apalta estates, the granitic soils with considerable moisture to preserve its tannings and acidity, provide good depth and structure, to develop fully ripen Carmenere’s distinctive character and structure. The grapes are handpicked and carefully selected before crushing, undergoing a period of cold maceration to ensure maximum retention of primary fruit flavors and color extraction. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks, with a 40-day total period of maceration. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels for 10 months and, after bottling, it is aged in Carmen’s cellars for an additional 2-month period prior to its release.
