Casa Silva, S7 Single Block Los Lingues Carmenere 2022

Casa Silva’s S7 Single Block Los Lingues Carménère 2022 is a compelling expression of one of Chile’s signature grapes, drawn from a single block at the foot of the Andes. It combines ripe fruit, elegant spice, and a distinctive sense of place, showing the depth and precision that have made Casa Silva a benchmark for Carménère in Chile.

Tasting Notes
Deep purple-red in the glass, this Carménère opens with an expressive nose of ripe blackberries, black cherries, and plums, lifted by notes of black pepper, bay leaf, and a subtle touch of spice. The palate is soft and rounded, with juicy dark fruit, a gentle earthy edge, and smooth, mature tannins. The finish is warm, spicy, and elegantly persistent, giving the wine both immediate charm and enough structure to develop further over the next few years. While already very approachable, it should continue to hold its appeal well with short to medium-term aging.

Production
S7 Single Block comes from a carefully selected parcel within Los Lingues Estate, where the Andes foothills create a unique microclimate with significant day-to-night temperature variation of up to 20°C. This helps the grapes ripen slowly and evenly while preserving concentration and aromatic freshness. The soils are alluvial-colluvial in origin, with fine sand, clay, and granite fragments that provide excellent drainage and naturally low yields. The grapes are hand-harvested and sorted with care before undergoing cold maceration and fermentation in small French oak barrels, a process designed to enhance complexity, texture, and precision.

Food & Serving
This is a versatile Carménère that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, spiced dishes, and slow-cooked stews, where its ripe fruit and gentle peppery character can really shine. Serve it at 16-18°C, and consider decanting for about 30-60 minutes if enjoying it young to let the aromatics and texture open up fully.

Producer
Casa Silva is one of Chile’s most respected family-owned producers, with a strong reputation for highlighting the country’s unique terroirs and signature varieties. The estate has been especially influential in raising the profile of Carménère, and S7 reflects years of research into the micro-terroirs of Los Lingues Estate. With its focus on site expression and precision winemaking, Casa Silva has earned a place among the leading names in modern Chilean wine.
