Matt, I linked to the Wiki entry, too– very intrigued that C- may be an ‘Ur-grape’: one of the primitive, un-crossed strains, even if there are questions as to its naturally mutated clonal status. I’m getting to be a geek about the viticulture part as I grow older…
I’ve kind of outgrown the style, but ‘Primus’ from Veramonte shows what the variety can do to fill out a Merlot-Cab blend. The first version I tried was mostly Carmenère, it seems the bias is towards Merlot these days, part of the reason I lost interest.
