All in all an outstanding wine for the average price of about $10 per bottle! Enjoy!
Cheers!
- Brandon

Dark and deep purple color, with luscious fruit flavors, Dark plums, blackcurrant, black chocolate with hints of coffee and toasted American oak. Pairs wonderfully with all types of grilled meats, and tasty winter comfort foods.
Recent Awards and Recognition:
Expovinos 2010 - Gold Medal, the top award in the “Chilean wines, quality Carmeneres” category
Wine Spectators Online Daily Wine Pick - James Molesworth described this wine as “A flashy, very toasty style, with lots of licorice and spice up front, followed by linzer torte and fruitcake notes on the finish. Stays fresh enough, though atypical for the grape.”

One of them being a self proclaimed klutz and the other a self proclaimed sewing master, they sought to create the ultimate wine bag. After several prototypes the “Tre” 3-bottle wine bag was born. A wine bag of the highest quality that prevents bottles from breaking in transit for those klutz’s out there, while keeping your wines at proper storing temperatures during your trip to your favorite BYOB restaurant, picnic location or bringing bottles home from your favorite winery.
