Carmenere 2009, Casillero del Diablo, Chile


Carmenere, Chilean "native" sort - after disappearing from Medoc, France. Lesser known son of the Devil's Cellar family, yet leaves no doubt which family he belongs to. Chilean finest. Try them all. Over and over.

Soldo, Biancho & Rosso Secco, Italy



Soldo, with an eye on Russian market. Mild to dull. White a tad more refreshing, yet both too light. Served in lounge in Sheremetyevo. No special treatment.
