WINEMAKER’S NOTE/ This 2007 version of our very special and highly awarded Carmenère from our "Alto de Piedras" terroir (Isla de Maipo, Maipo Valley) has a deep, dark, almost purple, colour. The aromas have a great intensity and excellent fruit expression that remind one of all kinds of berries. The ripeness of the fruit is surprising and the tannins �ll the mouth with power and excellent maturity. The wine is concentrated and ripe, but without losing the elegance and �nesse that always characterises this wine.

De Martino Single Vineyard "Alto de Piedras" Carmenère 2007

From very speci�c vineyards and very limited productions, these wines are the fruit of the work that we began 11 years ago, traveling through Chile from north to south and vinifying grapes from more than 350 di�erent terroirs. We have chosen a select few to make wines that are a true re�ection of their place of origin. This line shows Chile’s diversity and represents its �nest terroirs. They represent a journey through our geography in which each wine tells a new and distinct story.
