Fantastic Chilean Cab Sauv. You really can't find this complexity ANYWHERE at double this price point. Ripe blackberries, cassis, blue berries. Cocoa, vanilla, and ethereal eucalyptus. Full body, velvety tannins and bright acidity. Go buy a case.

Dark cherry, baked plum, soft mouthfeel and silky tannins, drinkable now with an hour plus decant. Menthol/mint and red fruit nose. Medium body. 97 points from Decanter 🤔🧐 seems odd from a reputable source, but must have factored in price; none the less a very good wine.

Carmen , nope!
Harsh
All negatives at first, notice the diesel type taste then the sour aspect then the harsh burn... Each negative element eventually evolves.
Only balance at first: tannins.
After 2hrs decanting..omg so much better! Everything balances out. Acidity remains an issue but everything else smoothens. Would get it again but wouldn't drink before 2hrs in decanter.
