Very impressed! Has the polish and complexity of a much more expensive wine.

This bottle wasn't as good as the first. Still a very good wine with red fruit and tannins but not as well balanced as others.

Apr 22nd, 2017This puppy was wound up very tightly when first opened. Once give some air I was impressed by the aromatics from the Syrah and the waves cassis from CS. The French oak gives the wine plenty of depth and complexity. Finish around 30 seconds. Massive QPR. Exactly what I was looking for compared to the softer styles on the other side of the Andes.

Interesting blend with Carmenere and Syrah paired with CabSav. Would love to see with 4 more years.

Ive learned from tasting this and reading. The reviews that I don't like "green, vegetal, grassy" notes. Plum and mocha? I don't pick that up. This is a no for me.

Lots of vegetation on the front to back . Something needs to happen to balance the veggies out. It's got a decent finish to it

I was fairly torn up on some fruit bomb from Spain and then switched over to this. Does well with some air. Found it to be surprisingly vegetal....broccoli and green peppers along with some cigar box....gave it a little more time and noticed some black licorice to boot. All in all pretty baller given the price.

Spice, asparagus-celery-grassiness, dark fruit and a wonderful gaminess on the nose (no doubt from the carmenere). Plum and mocha on the palette. Nice finish. Paired with a grilled bone in veal chop with Maple syrup , Dijon, chipotle and ancho pepper sauce.
