One of the first case purchases I made when I started collecting right out of college. Turned out to be a killer value at $10-12/bottle. Highly pyrazinic but balanced with just enough fruit.

So, this was a baller. This wine started out amazing...ripe fruit, vegetal and some of the developmental notes, but started out tasting like 10 year old Bordeaux. Unfortunately, it the glass it fell apart quick. So, we went with short pours after that...

1985--amazingly in good shape though fully mature Cabernet. 30 years later and this $12 wine was delicious.

I liked this compared to others among my group. Bright red stewed fruit, fresh, bay leaf and bell pepper. Good weight considering the color isn't that dark. Definitely different,.....

Medicinal at first, with pungent eucalyptus, that over time resolves into bay leaf, inky black fruit, and bittersweet chocolate/oak. A nice change of pace.

After reading the comments, it’s obvious that this is too young and green to appreciate. Should’ve held on to it but was curious. Good description of this Chilean Cab: curious. I didn’t dislike it, but very unusual cab it is. Decant and wait. Nice balance of tannins and fruit but too herbal for my taste. Would buy again but only to let it age.
