Marchigüe, Valle del Colchagua Carménère Mapa Gran Reserva 750ml

this is a dark wine, and it is really extracted with aromas of cooked fruit. It seemed almost overripe to me, with almost syrupy flavors if not body. I thought it improved with time in the glass. The flavor profile is quite different and the wine is very long. This is cold macerated, fermented for two weeks and then spends another three weeks on the skins, which accounts for the high extraction level. After pressing it sees 12 months in French oak on the lees. Not your average everyday red here
