Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
Reviewer, Jay Miller- The red wines start with the saturated purple 2006 Carmenere Peumo Vineyard Block 27. The nose offers up spice box, mineral, plum, black cherry, and blueberry. This is followed by a round, mouth-filling plush wine with ripe underlying tannin, complex, spicy flavors, excellent density, and a long, fruit-filled finish. Give it 2-3 years and drink it from 2012 to 2021. Terrunyo is a premium label owned by Concha y Toro. During my visit with Ignacio Recabarren, the brilliant vigneron behind the Terrunyo Carmenere project, I was able to taste all of the wine to date including the yet to be released 2007 Carmin de Peumo.

Dark in profile, with plum and currant fruit, but very pure, with silky tannins and a long, stylish finish that lets incense, spice and mineral notes play out. Drink now through 2011.
 

Additional Information

Region :
Chile
Winemaking has been part of Chilean culture since the Spanish arrival in the 16th century. But it was only after phylloxera devastated most European vineyards – and Chile finally reversed its isolationist policy – that Chilean wine reached foreign shores. Now, excellent wines from Carmenère, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and other Vitis vinifera grapes are being produced in Chile’s variable climate, and exported to the tune of over $6 million annually.
