The Frida Kahlo Reserve Carmenère from Viña Carmen is a bold and evocative tribute to the legendary artist, much like her own vibrant palette and fearless spirit. The wine greets the senses with an intense cherry-red hue, leading into an expressive nose of caramel and toffee, interwoven with hints of spice and ripe plum. These rich aromatics set the stage for a silky and structured palate, where velvety tannins provide depth while balancing out the wine’s layered complexity. A lingering finish ensures its presence is felt long after the last sip—a fitting homage to an artist who left an indelible mark on history.

Best enjoyed at 16–18°C, this Carmenère shines alongside hearty stews, pasta dishes, and traditional Chilean cuisine. Whether paired with slow-cooked meats or comforting, spice-infused recipes, its supple texture and well-integrated flavors create an immersive experience. A wine as striking as Frida herself, it beckons with intensity yet remains graceful in its delivery. A glass of this, and you might just find yourself lost in contemplation, much like gazing at one of her masterpieces.
