Vina Santa Rita Pewen 2021

Product description

Made from a small block of rainfed vineyards located in the piedmont of Apalta, considered as one of the best wine valleys for the production of Carmenere in Chile. Pewen reflects the full potential of the variety and comes from vines planted in 1938, one of the oldest existing vines in the country. It is a mature and elegant wine that seeks to position this variety among the best in the world.

95 Points - James Suckling

A deep and pretty spicy carmenere with some roasted red peppers, olives and hints of cedar, dark cherries and cocoa powder. Excellent balance with plenty of fine-grained dusty tannins. Nicely austere with the dryness balancing the fruit sweetness. Rather intellectual and really drinkable. Long and subtle.
