TerraNoble Gran Reserva Carmenere: A Chilean Masterpiece

Tasting Notes

TerraNoble Gran Reserva Carmenere hails from Chile's renowned Maule Valley, delivering a wine experience as rich and captivating as the region itself. This Carmenere exudes a deep ruby hue with flashes of violet at the rim, hinting at its youthful vibrancy.

On the nose, an intoxicating symphony of ripe black fruits unfolds. Blackberries, plums, and blackcurrants mingle with delicate notes of black pepper, clove spice, and a subtle touch of cedar. Its French oak ageing imparts whispers of vanilla and a gentle smokiness, adding complexity and elegance.

The palate mirrors the promise of the nose. Concentrated flavours of dark fruits wash over the tongue, framed by velvety tannins and a vibrant acidity. The oak influence provides structure and a lingering, cocoa-tinged finish. Hints of green bell pepper, a signature Carmenere trait, add an intriguing herbaceous touch.

Food Pairings

TerraNoble Gran Reserva Carmenere is a wine of presence and deserves culinary partners that complement its robust personality. Here are a few delicious pairings:

  • Hearty Meats: This Carmenere is tailor-made for grilled or roasted meats. Think succulent lamb chops marinated with rosemary and garlic, a slow-roasted beef brisket, or a classic Sunday roast with all the trimmings.
  • Bold Vegetarian Dishes: For a satisfying vegetarian option, try pairing TerraNoble Gran Reserva Carmenere with a rich lentil ragu served over creamy polenta, or a smoky mushroom and black bean burger.
  • Aged Cheeses: This Carmenere pairs beautifully with mature cheeses such as aged cheddar, Gouda, or a well-aged Manchego. The wine cuts through the richness of the cheese, creating a sublime flavour combination.
  • Spiced Dishes: The bell pepper notes and subtle spice within the Carmenere harmonise wonderfully with dishes featuring a hint of heat. Consider Indian curries with a tomato base, or Mexican-inspired dishes using chillies sparingly.

The TerraNoble Story

TerraNoble, nestled in the Maule Valley, is renowned for crafting expressive wines steeped in the region's unique terroir. Their Carmenere grapes benefit from the valley's warm days and cool nights, developing those signature rich fruit and herbaceous flavours.
