The 2015 Blend Fines Terrae is 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 12% Syrah from Maipo, aged in new French oak barrels. Dark garnet red in hue. The attractively complex nose presents notes of ripe blackcurrant, mint, pepper, thyme, bay leaf, cigar box and dried flowers. Voluminous with a refined texture and dry, reactive tannins. The flavors are fruity and well-defined with the thyme that becomes especially clear at the back of the mouth. A lingering, complex red. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, June 2022)

Concentrated black fruit that build with time, backed by loamy earth and charcoal tones, well integrated oak, built on a fine tannins. This is a claret with complexity and finesse, drinking beautifully today and sure to further evolve with time.

A bit fruity at first but tannins balance out wine. Lovely!

Best Chilean wine I've ever tasted - still fresh and lively after almost 20 years - Bordeaux style - so sad that this was the last bottle in my cellar.

The Cousiño family's wine estate in Santiago was established in 1856, and in 2006 celebrated its 150th anniversary. Deep vivid Ruby with complex aromas of berry fruit, cedar and spice on this 3 grape blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot and syrah. On the palate blackberry, cherry and plum flavors with leather and cacao. Fine tannins, well balanced with some sweet oak on the lingering finish. Nice value.

Very good structure and pronounced fruit. Chewy tannins with a touch of bell pepper.
