François Lurton 2011 Alka Carmenère (Colchagua Valley)

Country: Chile / Alka
Variety: Carmenère Colchagua Valley
Winery: François Lurton /

This superb Carmenère is lusty but intricate on the bouquet, with aromas of baked plum, blackberry, balsam wood, leather and horse hide. The palate shows a complex blend of high-voltage power and density; flavors of roasted blackberry, chocolate, pepper and root beer finish deep and oaky. Drink through 2020.
