What makes this wine truly special is its single-origin precision. Peumo is widely regarded as Chile’s finest Carmenère terroir, prized for producing fruit with depth, spice and signature leafy purity. Undurraga vinifies this micro-parcel separately, allowing the wine to express the soil, climate and vintage without compromise. The result is a Carmenère of remarkable finesse and restraint, powerful but never heavy, polished yet proudly expressive of place. A genuine treasure for collectors and curious explorers alike.
Tasting Notes
Deep ruby with violet reflections. Aromas of blackberry, ripe plum, sweet tobacco, cocoa, cracked pepper, and fresh herb unfold with refined intensity. On the palate, it is silky yet powerful dark berries, espresso, cedar spice and a touch of graphite glide over polished tannins. Mid-palate concentration is impressive, and the finish is long, savoury and complex, leaving subtle notes of dark chocolate, bay leaf and black fruit warmth.
Food Pairing
This refined Carmenère thrives with dishes that embrace richness and spice. It elevates braised beef, lamb shoulder with rosemary, peppered steak, grilled venison or mushroom ragù. Locally, it is magnificent with nyama choma, slow-cooked goat, dry-fried beef or ugali with rich greens, where its dark fruit and fresh herbal edge harmonise beautifully with smoky, savoury flavours.
