Calina Alcance Carménère 2005
The climatic conditions in this part of the Maule valley allow a slow maturation process, enabling to reach the phenolic maturation without losing the wonderful exotic spiciness of the Carménère. Its color is intense, the nose full of black fruits such as mulberry and blackberry intertwined with sweet spicy notes. The richness of its mouth-feel comes from soft and ripe tannins added to fruit flavors together with black pepper and earthy notes. This exotic complexity culminates in a soft touch of oak and walnut notes. Wine Enthusiast The Calina label seems to have hit its stride; this Carmenère opens with scents of black fruit, dill sprigs and chocolate. The palate broadens with olive, plum, blackberry and coffee flavors, and as a whole it comes together with a certain ease that announces it’s on the money. Score: 90. —Michael Schachner, November 15, 2007.
