About this wine
Santa Rita's Carmenere Medalla Real is a striking expression of Chile's most celebrated indigenous red grape, cultivated in the prestigious Maipo Valley. This full-bodied wine showcases the distinctive character of Carmenere, a varietal that thrives in Chile's unique terroir, delivering bold spice and ripe dark fruit with remarkable freshness. Santa Rita, one of Chile's most respected producers, brings decades of winemaking expertise to this elegant blend.
The Maipo Valley's combination of warm days and cool Pacific influences creates ideal conditions for Carmenere, resulting in wines with depth and complexity. The Medalla Real selection reflects the producer's commitment to quality and craftsmanship, with subtle notes of vanilla and chocolate that emerge from careful maturation. At 14% ABV, this wine offers balance and food-friendly structure, making it an excellent choice for pairing with grilled meats, rich game dishes, and aged cheeses. A sophisticated addition to any cellar.
