Winemaker Notes
Bright, dark red in color. Very ripe red and black fruit, with spice, black currant,and vanilla note aromas. The flavor is intense and ripe with tremendous complexity and concentration. Soft, ripe tannins, with a nice, long finish.

Wine & Spirits
From coastal Maipo, this refreshing carmenère has scents of herbs and menthol, while the flavor brings tart cherries to mind. A vibrant red for chicken fricassée.
Casa Rivas was established in 1992 at María Pinto in the Maipo Valley. The vineyards are planted at the foothill of the West Coastal Mountain Range, oriented to the sea and under a particular combination of climate and soil, resulting a unique terroir, where the different vine rootstocks have been planted in order to grasp the best of each area, achieving the optimum ripeness level and expressing the whole potential of aromas and flavours of each variety. In addition, our oenological philosophy and practices, that emphazise blending of varieties, give as a result well structured, concentrated and balanced wines.
