title: Viña Casas Patronales 2007 El Llano Vineyard Estate Bottled Carmenère (Maule Valley)
description: Herb and mint aromas dance with lactic berry notes, and as it unfolds a mask of sawdust and forced oak rises up to smother things. The palate is woody, tart and lemony, with an angular feel and a resiny finish. Harmony is in short supply here.
variety: Carmenère
