We're not professionals (by any stretch), but we like our wine.

Colchagua Valley Carmenère 2010 (Chile)
Nose: Very light, maybe something sweet at the very end. Maybe spicy?
Taste: There's a sweetness to it, very smooth and velvity.
Finish: Pretty smooth, maybe berries?
What we say: V - 'It's a nice colour. I think I smell cheese.' S - Do you remember the book the Velvateen Rabbit? It's so sad.' 'It's heavy, but not overpowering or in the tanniny headachy way.' 'You could bring this to a dinner party where you're not sure what people like - it's a safe dinner party wine'
What they say: Deep red and black fruits with a gentle wild herb perfume.
