Product Information:
Luis Gutierrez:“The 2019 Almaviva is a blend of 68% CabernetSauvignon, 23% Carmenere (from Peumo), 5% Cabernet Franc, 3% PetitVerdot and 1% Merlot, higher in Carmenere and reflecting a warmerand drier vintage when then bottled wine reached 15% alcohol. Itfermented with destemmed grapes in stainless steel and matured inFrench oak barrels, 75% of them new, for 18 months. Here, theCarmenere adds herbal freshness and changes the aromatic profilewhen compared with the 2019 Epu. 2019 was a good year forCarmenere, which suffers in extremely warm years like 2017, but inmoderately warm years like 2019, the variety displays that herbalcharacter and has good density. It's full-bodied and round, withsaturated tannins, tasty, spicy and long, with a dry, seriousfinish. It's balsamic, with notes of camphor and a silky andvelvety texture. 200,000 bottles produced.”
