  TerraNoble Carmenere COSTA CA2 is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Here are some inspired pairings:

  • Hearty Meats: The wine s bold flavours and robust structure make it ideal for pairing with grilled red meats like steak, lamb chops, or venison. The wine s acidity cuts through the richness of the meat, while the tannins complement the flavours.
  • Rich Stews: This Carmenere pairs wonderfully with hearty stews, especially those with rich tomato-based sauces, wild mushrooms, or braised meats. Think boeuf bourguignon or a hearty lamb tagine.
  • Mature Cheeses: The wine s complexity and spice notes marry perfectly with aged cheddar, Gouda, or a pungent blue cheese.

  • The Essence of Coastal Colchagua

    TerraNoble Carmenere COSTA CA2  exemplifies the influence of the cool Pacific breezes on the vineyards of its coastal origin. This maritime influence slows the ripening process, resulting in intense fruit concentration while retaining a refreshing acidity. The wine perfectly captures the essence of Chilean Carmenere, offering a tantalising blend of ripe fruit, spice, and subtle herbaceousness.
