Ruben y Flora Cabernet Carmenere Reserva New ZealandPairs with: Grilled steak tips, rosemary and thyme basted ribeye, lamb chops with mint chimichurri, or hearty grilled portobello mushroom burgers. Good for: Grilling out on a chilly evening, sparking long conversations over a cozy dinner, or stocking up on a rich, value driven daily red that punches well above its price tag. Grape: 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Carmnre. I am from: Maule Valley, Central Valley, Chile. The Story: Designed to celebrate the
beautifully balanced "Medium" style
the grapes are exclusively harvested in the chilly dark of night to lock in pristine chemistry
the resulting blend preserves the stunning freshness of the grapes while leaning into the sophisticated maturity of a decade spent in neutral oak casks
Grape: Sauvignon Blanc
these structures calcified
Meticulously distilled with precise "cuts" inspired by old-world Cognac techniques—purposely keeping select fruit-forward notes from the head of the distillation run—it captures a masterful harmony of 17th-century local heritage and modern American craft precision
