2021 Vina Casa Marín Mar Y Luz Carmenere

Viña Casa Marín was founded in 2000 by winemaker Maria Luz Marín, who had one thing in mind: to make 'terroir wines' in Chile. Her project was innovative and daring, but now she is loved and praised and an example for many others in Chile! María Luz is the first female winemaker and winery in Chile. After graduating from the University of Chile with a degree in agronomy and winemaking, Maria Luz worked in several wineries including not least having worked for Romanee Contie. She has successfully positioned her fine delicate wines in the top markets and among international critics, where they stand out for their high quality. Currently, Vina Casa Marin belongs to the top of Chile and is an example of beautiful elegant cool-climate wines.

Under Marilu's leadership, the Carmenère grapes are harvested by hand, and only when they are perfectly ripe. The Mar Y Luz Carmenère has a complex and intense aroma with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, red flowers, bay leaf, a little pepper and light vanilla from the oak. The taste is intense, has ripe, fresh tannins, plenty of dark (forest) fruit and the aftertaste is long and lively. A lot of wine for the money.
