Santa Alicia 2009 Reserva Carmenère (Maipo Valley)

Country: Chile / Reserva
Variety: Carmenère Maipo Valley
Winery: Santa Alicia /

Murky and soupy at worst and “earthy” at best, this soft, beefy Carmenère is loaded down with green, herbal flavors that can’t be saved by touches of mocha and coffee. The finish is downright green, and overall the fruit is weak.
