Top quality organic red, a blend of 38% Syrah, 33% Carmenere, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Carignan, 4% Malbec, 4% Garnacha, 3% Tempranillo, 3% Petit Verdot, 2% Mourvedre aged in mostly new oak. A lovely dense, yet bright full bodied red of real class. Rich and full with black and red berry fruits with some spice and perfectly judged oak. Best with strongly flavoured dishes and ideally decanted to allow the wine to open up fully. On special offer until the end of the year.
JH: "Red blends are serious things in Chile, and COYAM has improved by leaps and bounds in recent years. The 2021 is a stunner, amongst the absolute best. The quality to price ratio is off the charts."
"Coyam" – it's a word that sticks, isn't it? From the moment I first encountered it on the label of this wine and discovered its meaning, "oak forest," I couldn't shake the image of the wooded area behind the winery, coupled with the anticipation of the wine's aromas. The 2021 Red Blend Coyam is an intricate fusion of 37% Syrah, 36% Carménère, 6% Carignan, 5% Garnacha, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Mourvèdre, 3% Petit Verdot, 3% Malbec and 1% Tempranillo, sourced from Los Robles vineyard in the Colchagua Valley. Its complex bouquet offers notes of blackberry and cherry, complemented by hints of boldo and garrigue, with subtle undertones of raspberry. The true magic unfolds on the palate: dry yet juicy, with the cool influence of the 2021 vintage lending an easy and energetic flow. Coyam stands out as one of those rare wines that crafts its own unique universe of flavors—a forested realm in a glass.
