Simone
Simone is a winery in Chile's Central Valley, a region celebrated for its warm days and cool nights that shape bold, fruit-forward wines. The winery focuses on Carménère, the dark-skinned grape that thrives in Chile's terroir and has become emblematic of the country's wine identity. Carménère expresses itself with ripe dark fruit, subtle spice, and structured tannins—qualities evident in Simone's two principal offerings: the Special Reserve Carménère and the Carmenère. Wine Enthusiast has rated both expressions, recognizing their character and balance. The Special Reserve represents the winery's more concentrated effort, while the standard Carmenère offers direct access to the variety's signature profile. Together, these wines reflect the Central Valley's capacity to produce Carménère with depth and definition.
