Carmen Pinot Noir
Small batch Carmen Pinot Noir, hand picked in Commack.
The story behind Carmen
Pinot Noir is the light bodied red that Burgundy built its name on, and the style has traveled well to cooler vineyard sites in Chile, where Carmen makes its Reserva bottling. Expect bright red cherry and cranberry fruit, a soft tannin frame, and a clean finish that keeps the glass easy to refill.
We stock the Carmen Pinot Noir Reserva and the Carmen Cabernet Sauvignon here in Commack, and only a bottle or two of each at a time. Call ahead if you want one held.

Light enough for roast chicken, serious enough to open on a Tuesday.
Firmer tannin stands up to char and fat without breaking the bank.
