King Premium 2005 Carménère/Malbec

 


We’ve heard this wine described as heaven in a bottle! This unique blend – 50% Carménère and 50% Malbec – PengWine brings you the best of South America with the King. Smooth and creamy, it lingers long in the mouth balancing the flavors typical of these two varietals with toffee and toasty oak. The wine rested undisturbed for one year in the best French oak barrels before being blended into this dark ruby masterpiece. When the new vintage of King is released, it again will be extremely limited. Its reputation already has grown to a point where, if you want some – and you will – you’ll need to jump on it. Limited quantity, only 150 cases available for sale in the US.
