Very nice, high quality wine but I can just not get over these vegetative green notes (methoxypyrazines) from the predominant Carmenere grape in this blend. Just reminds me of green peas or agave. So that ruined it a bit for me. But my wife, Tammy, really liked it. We will be going to Chile this fall to look up some of these awesome wineries.
