Santa Ema Red Blend -2005 (WE-89926)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

The Carmenère in this Carm-Cabernet-Syrah blend is the lead singer, so expect a touch of minty green and herbal essence. It’s a heavyweight in the sense that the mouthfeel is big and the tannins are a little hard. But with airing it unveils classy, spicy berry flavors and wood-based accents of vanilla and butter (20 months in new oak will do that). A big wine that needs some airing. Ready now but can rest well in the cellar for a few more years. 1 Note

Santa Ema Red Blend -2003 (WE-61185)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Named after the home town of Santa Ema’s Italian-born owner, Rivalta blends Cabernet Sauvignon with smaller doses of Carmenère and Syrah. The result is a warm, extracted almost foresty wine with tobacco, spice, pepper and dark-fruit aromas and flavors. Comes on fiercely woody on the finish, with a hint of leafiness. Very modern and extracted; the positives comfortably outweigh any shortcomings. 1 Note

Santa Ema Red Blend -2007 (WE-116506)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Herbal and loaded with tomato leaf on the nose, but that's mostly the first impression. The wine settles down to reveal black olive, berry and leather. The feel is smooth and silky, with nice tannins and flavors of herbs, vanilla, cream, plum and chocolate. Lengthy on the finish, with acidic snap throughout. Drink now through 2014. 1 Note
