Dayum. Beautiful translucent ruby in color, this wine is so bright, lively, and fresh. Flavors of red fruits and cherry cola pop from the glass. This is a 50/50 blend of two grapes I seem to be favoring these days, so it's no surprise that I enjoyed this as much as I did. 50% Cinsault, 50% Paìs. 8/24/22. — 4 years ago

Pale ruby; medium plus intensity aromas of alpine strawberry, hibiscus, subtle herbs; dry, medium plus acid, medium alcohol, medium body, medium plus intensity flavors consistent with aromas; clean and fresh, very interesting; simpler but cleaner than the Monk — 5 years ago

Bought this at Republica de la Parra. Node has berries, wet leaves. Taste is a bit thin, berries, soft on tannins but they're there. Had it with pasta, would go well with light meats. recommended. — 5 years ago

A Cinsault planted in sandy, quartz soils. On the nose, cherry and earth notes plus hints of pea and a touch of sulfur. Soft in texture, it has gentle tannins with a little chalk and a rich aftertaste. A flavorful wine. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, March 2020)

Such a damn fine example what Muscat de petit grains dried in the sun can be. Made into the sweet (but not too sweet), spicy aromatic concoction that can be found in many countries. Miel? Yes but I get a lot of dried apricot equally. The residual sugar is IMHO perfectly balanced by the remaining acids. One of the best examples of desert Muscat I've had anywhere. Good cold but maybe even better at cool room temp.

Nice beer with good malt and light carbonation that went nicely with a chicken and chorizo paella. — 4 years ago

Temporada de hojas tiernas de la parra, ideal para preparar “sarmale” (niños envueltos). Justamente con este plato acompañamos el vino Castellino, muy buen precio, vino joven de mesa, en vista: rojo profundo con reflejos violetas, en nariz: muy frutado, recuerdos a frutas rojas, negras, ligero, fresco, con notas especiadas, en boca: nuevamente marca la fruta, muy fresco, equilibrado, suave en tanninos, me gusto, temperatura de servicio 14°C a 16° saludos. — 5 years ago

Cedar, dusty earth, dried herbs, strawberry and raspberry, all wrapped in a gauze of rock dust and pulverized dried flowers. Amazing acidity and a faint saltiness in the finish. 100+ year old Cinsault bush vines from the nooks and crannies of Itata. Dr. Terroir (soil geologist Pedro Parra) is putting his terroir where his mouth is. Roughly 30% whole cluster, but 100% delicious. — 5 years ago

A few days late in posting the Wednesday Wine Committee wines. Standard format with 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds and 1 dessert wine. All served blind.

@Delectable Wine : This is the Martin Estate Puerta Dorada Vineyard Cabernet Port. I didn’t see it in the database.

Fig, nutmeg, clove and rich mixed berry pie. Lots of similarities to port, but the finish never goes to the traditional graham cracker richness, and not as lengthy of a lingering finish. Lighter than expected, and definitely not super sweet. More similar to a heavily extracted cab with age. I guessed Napa Cab dessert wine. — 7 years ago
