This wine is a blend of 80% pais and 20% carignan from the southern Maule region of Chile and is made in an old style called Pipeño. The wine is light in color with bright notes of crushed raspberry, wild strawberry, and rose petals that lead into underlying hints of dried herbs, mint leaves, fennel, and thyme. This fruit-driven, easy-drinking wine with a bit of animale has fresh acid with low tannin and can be enjoyed with a slight chill.
