Product Notes

Ventisquero Tara Red Wine 2 - Syrah is a distinct Chilean red wine featuring a harmonious blend of fruity sophistication and earthy undertones. It embodies a distinct aroma of red fruit, berries, and spices, intertwined with subtle tobacco fragrances. The wine is rich on the palate with notes of blackberry and dark cherries, beautifully balanced by delicate tannins and minerality. This elegant Syrah offers a long finish evolving on the palate, leaving a memorable impression. Best paired with hearty dishes, it intrigively represents the uniqueness of the Ventisquero’s wine range. It truly is a tantalising option for the discerning oenophile.

Tasting Notes

This is a deep ruby-red wine which reveals a mix of black fruits, herbs and graphite. This is a very particular and complex wine. It's fresh, with notes of wild herbs, spices and firm tannins. In the mouth, this medium-bodied wine displays delicious acidity, which lends interesting tension to the wine, as well as firm tannins. Very long in the finish. The calcareous soil of the second terrace of the River Huasco gives its characteristics to this very special wine. This is a completely unique and atypical wine, representing the chalky soil and climate of the coastal desert.
