Caleuche Reserva Syrah 2021
According to Chilean legend the Caleuche is a ghost ship that sails the fjords of southern Chile, led by powerful sorcerers and crewed by sailors and fishermen lured aboard by its ghostly music and enslaved for all eternity. The ship sails at night, always full of lights and with the sounds of a party on board, but quickly disappears again, leaving no evidence of its presence. Those who see or hear the Caleuche but resist its call become a floating piece of wood or marine animal forever.
Tasting notes
Nice purple hues typical of Syrah. Pure fruit flavors: cherry, boysenberry, blackberry, blueberry, with some hints of white pepper and vanilla. Wide mouthfeel, juicy attack on the palate, and light tannins make this a fresh and easy to drink wine that will pair well with a wide variety of foods. A medium bodied, fruit forward wine with medium persistence and hints of sweet cranberry on the finish.
Pairs well with a wide variety of food from aperitif to salad to meat.
Description
Caleuche Reserva Syrah from Maule Valley, Chile
Grape: 100% Syrah
The Maule Valley is located in the southern part of Chile’s Central Valley. This area, where we find the largest vineyards in all of Chile, has a tradition of growing grapes that dates back to the 17th century.
Located between the Andes Mountains and the Chilean Coast Range, the Maule Valley benefits from a significant temperature variation between day and night, with its rainy season restricted mainly to winter. These conditions allow us to obtain healthy grapes, with high concentrations of color, flavor and aromas.
FEATURED: 290 hectares of own vineyards allow Aromo to obtain the best wines including the Caleuche Reserva Syrah.
Four estates:
- El Trapiche
- Ventolera
- Santa Margarita
- El Pilar
