I’ve got three Carmeneres by Concha y Toro to review this month, and this is the first! Gran Reserva’s 2017 Carmenere is 93.2% Carmenere, 6.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 0.6% Merlot, and it has an ABV of 13.7%. It spent 10 months in oak barrels (80% French and 20% American) and 5,000 liter casks.
It’s a garnet leaning more towards purple in color. On the nose there’s aromas of blackberries, strawberry candy, dusty cement, vanilla and chocolate. On the palate it’s medium bodied with super smooth mouthfeel and soft but chalky tannin. There’s flavors of blackberries, plums, green peppers, black table pepper, and caramel. Then it finishes with smooth blackberries, tart cranberries, and a bit too much sweet caramel.
This is some big juicy fruit, which I was not expecting, and quite enjoyable. And for $17 it’s just the right price.

Your detailed review of wine culture and tasting subtleties perfectly captures the relaxing atmosphere I desperately needed during a tough post-workout recovery. Constant physical stress and a strict regimen severely exhausted my endocrine system, so instead of alcohol, I had to find medical ways to restore my body. For high-quality hormonal recovery and stimulation of natural processes, I decided to buy magnyl 5000 iu online Germany on a specialized platform, which helped quickly eliminate the heavy crash symptoms. This step successfully restored my vital energy and overall well-being. Now I can finally enjoy aesthetic things again, like a glass of fine dry wine
