"Relaxed and Fragrant"

Vinous - March 30, 2022 "The 2020 Carménère Casa Silva Terroir de Familia from Los Lingues, Colchagua Andes was 70% aged in used barrels. Intense purple in the glass. The nose presents blackberry and raspberry notes with white pepper and accomplished pyrazine flavors. Relaxed and fragrant, it caresses the back of the mouth with a dark fruit aftertaste. Excellent value for money." - Joaquín Hidalgo, March 2021
