Carmenère
Cabernet Sauvignon Chardonnay CarmenèreThis line is the heart of CASAFÈVRE, highlighting its finest vineyards in Pirque, one of the world's most important Denominations of Origin. Three vineyards located on different terraces of the Alto Maipo Valley for our three main varieties.
The winery is located in the countryside of San Luis, in the great Pirque Valley. Our finest Carmenère, the last variety we harvest, comes from here. This long-lived variety requires higher temperatures. To withstand these heat waves, the soils must be deeper and retain more water.
Here, the components are highly concentrated clay and silt, which help reduce the concentration of pyrazine, characteristic of this variety and its bell pepper notes. But the result here is delightful—not the green bell pepper, but the red, roasted kind. These and other spicy notes make it one of the few wines that pairs well with spicy foods, such as Mexican or Thai cuisine.
