Extremely deep intense purple colour. Youthful, classy, fairly intense, ripe plum-cherry nose with some slight cedary notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, quite dense, slightly spicy, intense, ripe plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, fairly high acid, gently cedary finish. This terrific Rapel Valley wild yeast fermented blend of 30% Syrah, 25% Carmenère, 23% Merlot and 22% Cabernet Sauvignon has 14.5% alcohol and 4 g/L residual sugar with lot number LC130717 L5022 7144 on the back label.
