Carmenère Explained 🍷🇨🇱
🍇 Carmenere, as rich as its wines, originated in Bordeaux. As a Cabernet Franc offspring, it's a sibling to Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
🔥 When the phylloxera plague hit Bordeaux, Carmenere was wiped out completely, disappearing for a century.
⭐️ However, in 1994, DNA research concluded that the vine cuttings brought from Bordeaux to Chile in the 18th century, believed to be 'Merlot,' were actually Carmenere, thus, this mistake saved the variety.
🇨🇱 Today, Carmenere is the flagship wine of Chile, which accounts for 96% of the global production.
🫑 Carmenere wines often feature a rich taste, characterized by ripe dark fruits such as blackberry, black cherry, plum, and notes of green bell pepper which is the signature of the variety.
