[Wine of the Week] From the Mont Gras San Jose estate in the Colchagua Valley, an oak-aged 100 per cent carmenere that positively brims with ripe, spicy fruit, vanilla and dark mocha chocolate. Long out of fashion in Bordeaux, this variety thrives in Chile like nowhere else and is a joy best served with rare steak. (Jonathan Ray, www.telegraph.co.uk, The Daily Telegraph U.K., June 10, 2009)
