Vina Falernia, Carmenere Gran Reserva, 2021

The colour is brilliant and deep, the nose intense with aromas of brambly black fruit, espresso, spice and sweet pepper. Robust and dense on the palate, super-velvety tannins, fine oak nuance and positively bouncing with blackcurrant fruit. A hugely impressive wine that benefits from the grapes being dried, hand-picked at harvest and grown at high altitude. Inspired by the drying process used to make Amarone, you will not find an Amarone of this quality for anywhere near this price!
