Novisimo Canepa, Carmenere 2007, Central Valley, Chile ($9)

Intriguing stuff. Light aromatics of dark berry - propably blueberry. Smooth on the palate but bery thin on the front 2/3rds with strong flavour coming in on the back. Straight after this we had Wild Rock merlot/malbec whose flavour firmly put this camenere's into place. At $9 not bad, and certainly a change to the usual stuff at that price point.
