Wines by Jean-Paul Carmenere 2017 (6 x 750ml)
(Offer price - $29 per bottle in a straight six-pack)
I fell in love with Carmenere when working in Chile. The flavour and depth of the variety are phenomenal. When picked early you get a freshness and savoury note of capsicum. When picked ripe Carmenere can be more powerful than Cabernet Sauvignon. This vintage I got it right, the grapes were ripe without losing their savoury note. A wine full of blackberries and elderberries also a hint of green peppercorn.

Winery tasting note
Deep crimson in appearance. Highly attractive nose of
blackcurrant/blackberry, touch of graphite, a herbal note (dry rosemary,
thyme and bay) lends complexity. Dry, medium bodied, lovely core of
ripe dark berry fruit, notes of green capsicum and a lovely herbal
edge. Super smooth, with very fine tannins. Drinking superbly
now. Bravo Jean-Paul!
