This vintage represents a new approach with a more selective approach in the vineyard, using regenerative biodynamic farming and tweaks made to winemaking with increased micro vinifications. In fact, you will notice that the suggested retail price has doubled in this latest release. With 6,294 bottled created, the Inama 2018 Colli Berici Carmenere Riserva Oratorio di San Lorenzo reveals lots of freshness with menthol and herbal nuances, without any residual heaviness in terms of mouthfeel. The wine sees 28 days of skin maceration for balanced results and soft tannins. Oak aging sees a regime of 50% new French oak and 50% second and third-year barrel. The risk with Carménère is that is can sometimes taste green, but this pretty wine turns those aromas into a very Mediterranean bouquet with lasting softness and texture.
