Carinena
Filter
Carinena is a red wine grape most often grown in Chile and in the regions of Aragon, Rioja, Catalunya, and Navarra in Spain. Carinena displays notes of blackberry, licorice, and can be spicy and earthy on the pallet. Carinena is often used in Crianza blends. In Spain there is a designated plateau in Aragon called “Campo de Carinena”. This area is one of the oldest protected growing region in Europe dating all the way back to 1932. It is most famous for producing Priorot and Monstant wines. Carinena is commonly used as a blending grape, but is now beginning to produce its own single variety wines. Carinena will contribute acidity, rich dark color, hints of cherry, and increase of tannins while blending. The wine produced from Carinena is paired best with cheeses such as blue, fontina, and gouda. It also pairs wonderfully with game and seafood.

A brooding and intense wine. The aromas begin with notes of blueberry, cassis, a hint of lavender followed by a myriad of exotic spices, some hazelnut, thyme and an element of licorice. Firm, mature tannins—evidence of Ten's ageability—are followed by a long, velvety finish.
Poggio Nardone Rosso di Montalcino is 100 percent Sangiovese Grosso.
Intense ruby red color with garnet tints.
Intense and delicate aromas of fresh fruits with notes of cherry.
Dry red wine with a good strength and freshness, along with a nice aromatic persistence.
The 5 hectares of specialized vineyards in Montalcino are at an altitude of 350 meters above sea level and are surrounded by woodlands of ilex, oak and arbutus which are characteristic of Montalcino’s hillside habitat. The soil is predominantly composed of marl and limestone which renders this terrain particularly rich in mineral salts.
Pairs well with pasta prepared with meat sauces, mushrooms or truffles; complex rice, main courses of pork or veal with sauces.
Review:
"Aromas of red fruit, rosemary and white smoke. Medium-bodied with bright acidity. Pleasant, savory herbs on the palate. Wet-stone finish. Drink now."
