Red dry
This wine is crafted from Carménère vines which have a unique ability to transmit their origin at the purest level because they are ungrafted. De Martino carefully tend these ungrafted vines using sustainable farming methods and strive to produce wines with the maximum expression of their special Maipo terrior. With its mild Mediterranean climate and gravel rich soils, Chile's flagship grape reveals its true potential in this Isla de Maipo vineyard. Signature Carménère aromas of bramble fruits and green bell pepper are joined by violets and spice, coating the mouth and lingering long into the finish.
Serve at 14-16 °C with wild poultry, meat and vegetable stews, medium-hard cheeses.
De Martino Winery is a family-owned estate founded in 1934 by Pietro De Martino, an Italian immigrant who established ideal conditions for wine production in the Maipo Valley. The winery consistently invests in organic viticulture and sustainable farming, aiming to reveal the diversity of Chile's regions and the authentic expression of terroir. Their winemakers constantly travel through different Chilean locations, seeking unique plots for the production of individual, exceptional wines, striving to prove that Chile can produce top-quality wines. De Martino was the first to export Carmenere wine to foreign countries in 1996, and currently, their single-vineyard wines consistently receive high ratings from wine critics, enthusiasts, and professionals alike.
