2024 Tunupa Carmenere

Country: Chile
Price: $12.49

Made for a robust lamb shoulder braised with rosemary, the 2024 Tunupa Carménère from Chile offers a darkly compelling experience. Its ripe plum and hint of green pepper flavours find their perfect counterpart in rich, slow-cooked meats. This is a wine that feels thoughtfully considered, a vibrant red that invites you to linger over each mouthful.

Tasting Notes

  • Aroma: Ripe black plum, black cherry, and a hint of green bell pepper with subtle chocolate notes.
  • Palate: Rich dark fruit flavours with a touch of spice, a velvety texture, and a lingering smoothness.
  • Finish: Medium-bodied with soft tannins and a satisfying, fruit-driven finish.

Perfect Food Pairings

This versatile Carménère pairs beautifully with a wide variety of dishes:

  • Grilling: Grilled steak, lamb chops, or barbecued pork ribs.
  • Hearty Mains: Shepherd's pie, beef stew, or spicy sausage pasta.
