Anakena Reserve Merlot 2005
By Gary Walsh
This is 100% Merlot but it smells a bit like Carmenere it must be said.
Aromas of red and black berries, tamarillo, bitter chocolate and hint of rubber. Quite engaging. On the palate medium bodied with red fruit, bitter herbs, spice and a little chocolate. Fresh with dry tannins and a dried herb and red fruit finish. A good refreshing wine made for the table as opposed to tasting like one made from it.
