Not Merlot - But Carmenere

By Shannon at 03/05/07 21:24

Winemakers for centuries have believed that an insect epidemic devastated vineyards and killed out the carmenere grape in the late 19th century. Until about a decade ago this was believed to be true until a wine consultant state the Merlot was too spicy and too dark and did DNA tests to confirm it was the carmenere grape. Now Chile touts carmenere as its own and is wining top honors in the wine industry.
