Fundacion Syrah Carmenere 2005 RED Chile

Elqui Valley lies 300 miles North of Chilean capital Santiago 8800 feet above sea level. Vines this close to the heavens bask in the most intense sunlight which in turn produces fruit of remarkable purity and concentration. When we began championing the wines of the pioneering Falernia cellar Elqui Valley became a region to look out for among those 'in-the-know' but was unheard of by the rest of the world. That all changed at the annual Wines of Chile tasting. All the top wine writers were there and the cellar that amazed everyone was Falernia home of Fundacion. Suddenly our secret cellar was putting Elqui Valley on the map. No-one at the tasting had even heard of the place! After such a spectacular showing it's been difficult keeping this superstar under wraps. The cellar's latest red made from deliciously rich Carmenere and spicy Shiraz is big succulent and immensely drinkable
