Casa Ermelinda Freitas offers a table red wine made from Carmenere grapes, which originated in Bordeaux but has found its modern home in Chile. This grape is known for its plum, dark berry flavors and savory green-pepper spice, with the best wines balancing ripe fruit against the natural pyrazine character that gives it a savory herbal edge. Expect smooth, approachable varietal styles or more structured bottlings from Chile's warm regions, often featuring notes of cocoa, tobacco, dried herbs, and spice, with oak adding chocolate, vanilla, or cedar tones. Carmenere pairs well with a variety of dishes, including grilled meats, pork, lamb, and moderately spicy foods.
