MAX was named in honor of our founder, Don Maximiano Erre1zuriz. MAX Carmenere primarily comes from our Max vineyards in the Aconcagua Valley, one of the most awarded valleys in Chile. Located in the interior of the valley, the vineyard soils have a predominantly silty texture and are of colluvial origin, giving a distinctive and unique fingerprint to the wine style.It displays a bright and deep violet colour. On the nose, displays notes of black and red fruits, and spicy characters that recall roasted red bell pepper, paprika, and black pepper, all framed by soft touches of chocolate and roasted coffee beans. On the palate, presents notes of nuts, spices, black tea, and cloves’ gentle touch. It has a fresh, round and very delicate with fine-grained tannins that give a silky texture on the palate.
