The Carchelo C from Bodegas Carchelo is a cask-aged red wine cuvée from Monastrell (35%), Cabernet Sauvignon (30%), Tempranillo (25%) and Syrah (10%).

The glass reveals a garnet red colour with a violet core. In the nose, this Spanish red wine is intense and refreshing with a great variety of aromas of blueberries, cassis, strawberries, blue flowers and a hint of liquorice. This is underlined by elegant and spicy vanilla, cedar and roasted notes. On the palate, this red wine comes with a balanced acidity and a medium body with soft tannins before this wine flows into a long finish.

Vinification of the Bodegas Carchelo C

The grapes for this red wine come from vines with an age of 15 years, which grow in the Spanish region D.O. Jumilla. 

After harvesting the grapes, they are pressed and the resulting mash is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wood is then aged for 4 months in French oak barrels.
