Better on the second night. This is the first wine I have had that made me feel I was actually standing in my vegetable garden amongst green bell peppers. Some smoke and spice. Medium in body with smooth tannins. Balanced but simple. Paired with Italian chicken bake and zucchini sauté. Accidentally a perfect pairing. Summer all the way!

Not overly dry or heavy on the tannins. Perfect fit with some dark chocolate and an evening in watching movies. Would purchase again due to price point and availability. Purchased at Willow Mercantile

A Bordeaux transplant who has found a home in Chile. Good tannins and bones. Black fruit, spice and tannins.

Rich aroma of tabacoo with a leathery snap. Dark berries and tart cherry appear first on the palate, giving way to a sharp finish. Would go great accompanying a fig salad or beef tartar.
