CHILE

Elqui Valley is Chile’s most extreme wine region – nearly 5000 feet above sea level, it has 300 days of summer and such clear skies that it's famous for observatories. It’s a tough place to make wine – so it’s no surprise that there’s only one commercial winery here. Winemaker Giorgio Flessati’s Italian roots have heavily influenced the way they make wine. In fact, this is the first appassimento Carménère in the world, made by leaving the grapes to dry on the vine until the flavours are much more pronounced. Black pepper. Plums. Figs. It’s incredibly rich, with plenty of black-fruit flavours and subtle sweetness from the dried grapes. Great with tagine.

Perfectly acceptable, smooth, concentrated, well made, but too sweet in my opinion. Santa Rita Medalla Real is better, especially if you can find some with some age.

Stick with the Italian Pasqua 'PassionSentimento' Passimento red or white much better

Absolutely super. Rich and fruity but still with a depth. Perhaps the appassimento treatment that brings out so much flavour. I have long been a fan of carmenere but it is often used as a blend with the more common cabernet etc, not often on its own

Bought 2016 case of this. Potentially an excellent wine but needs laying down. After 2 years it’s come on leaps and bounds but would suggest at least 3 years until it’s at its best. I think It will be an absolute cracker next year. Definitely buy again.

This is an outstanding wine. Don’t want to sound “winey” but it’s got depth, smokiness and almost a leather feel to it. It benefits from opening and breathing but we really like this wine.
