Open the Carmenere one hour before the tasting, pour a little bit and place it in the fridge for 15 minutes during the Pinot Noir chat. Open the Cabernet Sauvignon one hour before the tasting, pour a little bit and place it in the fridge for 15 minutes during the Carmenere chat.



I did have a Wines of Chile party in the past and all of the guests had a great time.Log in and you will find tasting notes, winery information and recipes via a Pod that will appear on the screen.
I look forward to hearing about your 'Wines of Chile' party.
