Description
Located in the heart of Long Island, New York, the Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant offers an exceptional range of fine wines and spirits, catering to enthusiasts across all 50 states. Among their curated selection is the Araucano Carmenere, a distinguished red wine that stands out for its rich history and scrumptious profile.
Araucano, the producer of this exquisite wine, hails from Chile, a country renowned for producing world-class Carmenere. This particular variety has thrived in Chile’s climate, finding a new identity after being mistaken for Merlot for many years. Carmenere is now considered Chile’s signature grape, symbolizing the innovation and quality of South American viticulture.
The Araucano Carmenere 750mL bottle boasts a complex and robust flavor profile, perfectly encapsulating the essence of Chilean terroir. This Carmenere is characterized by its deep, intense red color and an aromatic bouquet that suggests plums, blackberries, and spicy notes, with a hint of chocolate and vanilla as a result of its time spent aging in oak barrels. On the palate, it offers a harmonious balance between fruit and spice, providing a smooth, velvety finish that lingers, inviting another sip.
This wine fits seamlessly into the Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant’s dedication to offering a diverse selection of fine wines. Whether you’re exploring the world of Carmenere for the first time or you’re a seasoned enthusiast looking for something exceptional, the Araucano Carmenere is a choice that promises to enhance your wine rack, bringing the richness of Chilean wine culture right to your glass. Ideal for special occasions or as a sophisticated addition to any dinner, it also serves as a perfect gift, especially when accompanied by the store’s bespoke wine gift boxes or bottle engraving services.
