Details
This Carménère from Apalta is bold, smooth, and seriously seductive. Deep red in the glass, it hits you with lush waves of ripe red berries, dark chocolate, and a twist of warm spice. The palate brings rich concentration, silky tannins, and just the right amount of heat - all thanks to those sun-drenched slopes and rocky soils doing their thing!
TerraPura is the kind of winery your somm mate won’t shut up about, and for good reason. Born in Chile back in 2004, TerraPura is all about crafting honest, high-quality wines that show off the incredible range of Chile’s landscapes. Think bold reds, vibrant whites, and everything in between, all shaped by the wild beauty of the country’s valleys. Now part of the Matetic family (the legends behind some of Chile’s most sustainable winemaking), TerraPura keeps things real - minimal intervention, max expression, and a serious respect for the land. The name says it all - TerraPura means “pure earth”, and that vibe runs through everything they do. Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword here; it’s a full-on mission. From the vineyard to the bottle, it’s all about working with nature, not against it. Their wines reflect the balance they’ve struck between the soil, the climate, and the people who care for it - and it shows in every sip. Basically, if you’re after wines that taste great, feel good, and tell a proper story, you’ve found your crew.

Pairing guide
Ventopuro Carménère is big, bold, and packed with personality, making it a killer match for anything roasted, grilled, or smoked - whether you’re serving up juicy chicken, tender pork, slow-cooked lamb, rich beef, or crispy-skinned duck. Basically, if it’s got flavour, this wine’s ready for it. It vibes especially well with South American flavours - think smoky BBQ or spicy carnitas. Got a paprika-spiced pork belly on the go? Sorted. This is a wine that loves bold food and isn’t afraid of a little heat or spice.
