Ocio Valle de Casablanca Pinot Noir 2018

v18. Amazing!!! Fragrant, cherry licorice nose, with a hint of saline. Fresh, deep, rich black cherry fruit. Bright, long, full, slightly chewy, black pepper and milk chocolate finish. Nicely balanced . — 12 days ago

Abalos Rioja Tempranillo Blend 1920

140 bottles of this treasure were found in the winery's cellar around 2011 before it was reconditioned, sealed with fresh corks, and released into the world a few years later. A portion of these made their way to the Portland market in 2017 thanks to a fantastic local distributor, Casa Bruno.

Popped and poured - pristine cork beneath the wax and beautiful color, not at all brown or tawny, more brickish, slightly orange towards the rim. First sniff- clearly this is a sound, complete wine that is without a doubt very much alive. Aromatically reminiscent of old Bordeaux with ample leather, earth, cigar box and tobacco, sandalwood veering towards old wooden cabinet (if that makes sense), clove and nutmeg and cola, fruit is still present- strawberry/pomegranate, orange, very herbal and floral with dried rose petals/potpurri, vibrant acidity and an impressively long, haunting finish. Incredibly elegant, silky texture, crystalline purity, finished very Burgundian. Really, a perfect hybrid of aged Bordeaux and Burgundy. As a friend put it, "somehow both aged and ageless." No question the best 50+ year old bottle I've been fortunate to try. Certainly a once in a lifetime opportunity, though I hope to track down another bottle someday. You'd never guess this was 105 years old.

Gran Reserva Maipo Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Clear, medium ruby in color with a garnet rim; on the nose it's clean with medium intensity primary and secondary aromas of green peppercorns, graphite, and black cherries; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, high tannins, full body, high alcohol, and pronounced intensity primary and secondary flavors of blackberries, dried figs, and black currants with a medium finish. This wine is complex and intense. Overall, I rate this wine as very good. It improves with time in the glass. — 5 months ago

Not a huge fan of Sauvignon Blanc, but this is fantastic. Crisp, but not just another simplistic Sauv Blanc, it has character. — 8 years ago

Leyda

Las Brisas Vineyard Pinot Noir 2011

Thick, rich, some barnyard smell, red fruits on palate, some herbs, pleasant acidity, soft tannins, but somehow it tastes very alcoholic. Becomes more interesting with every sip you take. — 9 years ago

Casas del Bosque

Reserva Casablanca Valley Pinot Noir 2013

Clear ruby colour in the glass.

On the nose intensely meaty with plum, leather and some mushroom notes. It is a very ripe style with strong intensity.

Dry on the palate with medium acidity and tannins. It coats the mouth with a silky sensation. Medium body.

Medium finish, excellent value Pinot Noir from Chile.
