title: Aresti 2001 Reserve Carmenère (Rio Claro)
description: There is some green bean and ashtray aromas on the nose, but also some maple-like wood. The palate is also slightly green at its center, but surrounding that is a fair amount of plum and cranberry. The finish is smooth, properly textured and tannic enough to create a dry, cheek-gripping feel. There's definitely some character here.
variety: Carmenère
designation: Reserve
