Viña Errázuriz Carmenère 'Kai' 2016
Vintage Character
The 2016 vintage in Chile’s Aconcagua Valley delivered a cooler, more temperate growing season, with some rainfall during harvest that contributed to wines of notable freshness, aromatic precision, and moderate structure.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Awarded an impressive 94 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, Errazuriz Kai Carmenere 2016 showcases the varietal’s benchmark character: expressive aromas of ripe blackberries, plum, roasted red pepper, and subtle cocoa lead into a palate layered with plush tannins and beautifully integrated oak. Nuanced notes of black cherry, graphite, and sweet spice unfold, while the finish lingers with hints of dark chocolate and dried herbs. This wine’s vibrant profile and structure benefit from decanting, and it pairs exceptionally well with grilled lamb chops, roasted vegetables, or a hearty mushroom risotto. The subtle heat of Sichuan beef also finds a harmonious match here, highlighting the wine’s versatility across both Western and select Asian-inspired dishes.
Winery Background
Founded in 1870 by Don Maximiano Errázuriz, Viña Errázuriz stands as one of Chile’s most esteemed and innovative wineries, pioneering the production of premium wines in the Aconcagua Valley. The estate is recognized for its sustainable vineyard practices, meticulous parcel selection, and a commitment to expressing the unique terroir of volcanic soils and a Mediterranean climate. With a philosophy that blends tradition and modern winemaking techniques, Errázuriz has elevated the reputation of Chilean wines globally. Kai represents the pinnacle of their Carmenere expertise, crafted from select parcels and reflecting the estate’s dedication to quality, varietal purity, and the nuanced expression of place.
