Based in the Maule Valley, Chilensis, the word itself means Chilean or coming from Chile, aromas of berry fruit and spice. On the palate cherry with a jolt of spice and vivid acidity. Very drying tannins, short finish, not for me, pass. Tasting Sample!

Cherry start, oaky finish. Nice (low) tannins. Solid body for a Pinot.

Smells like black fruits, tastes like chocolate and tobacco. Reminds me strangely of a French wine. Really like it

Delicious. Light red wine for summertime drinking. Compliments slightly spicy food.

2010. We loved it again! L said "good wine," which is always good. As long as we don't drink more frequently than once per month, it's a regular.
