Carmenere has expressed great affinity to the Chilean terroir. It adapted so well to the soils and sunny climate that was often called the ''Chilean Merlot''. Our Arboleda Carmenere captures this grape variety's finest attributes with its intense colour and deep, spicy fruit character. Its aroma is highly complex, with unique notes of sweet spices, fig jam and tobacco intermingling with vibrant layers of rich, ripe berries. On the palate the wine has a full, round mouth feel, with rich and complex flavours and round, soft tannins, culminating in a long, lingering finish.The Arboleda range is made to complement food. This wine is perfect with grilled meat. The hand-harvested Carmenere grapes are quickly transported to the winery and carefully emptied into belt conveyors to avoid damaging the grapes. After destemming and lightly crushing the fruit, we gave the must a cold maceration of two to three days for gentle extraction of colour and flavour. We then began fermentation at 28ºC with selected yeasts, pumping the wine over the cap of skins twice a day to extract flavours. To develop varietal complexity and naturally soften tannins, we gave the wine 40 days of extended maceration. This wine aged in French and American oak barrels for eleven months to weave spicy oak nuances through the rich fruit flavours. (6 x 75 cl)

Leasingham MAGNUS Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon Clare Valley Australia
Description: Established in 1893 Leasingham Wines has been an integral part of the Clare Valley for over 100 years. Today,Leasingham 's 300 hectares of vineyards, located to the north and south of Clare, provide the premium fruit, which, along with the winemaking commitment and expertise, enable Leasingham to produce outstanding, award winning, regional wines. The renowned dryland Schobers vineyard in South Australia 's Clare Valley produced the Jimmy Watson Trophy winning 1994 Classic Clare Shiraz. A cool,dry ripening season led to vintage yields below average which served to concentrate grape flavours and colour. Following vintage, the wine was matured in new American and French oak for 18 months, and a further 18 months maturation in bottle prior to release. Deep ruby red in colour with purple hues, this wine displays attractive berry and plum aromas integrated with cedar and vanillin oak characters. Ripe, blackberry and chocolate flavours highlight a palate of great concentration and persistence of flavour. This wine's structure, depth of flavour and soft generous tannins will ensure it gains further flavour complexity and character with careful cellaring. (6 x 75 cl)
