Santa Rita Medalla Real Carmenere 2008, Colchagua Valley, Chile: Simply wow! One of the best Chilean carmeneres that I've tasted in a long time. Gorgeously luscious and rich, with wave after wave of black plum. Yet not heavy or flabby. Superbly balanced with the influence of the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountains.
