This is the Las Higueras Vineyard Lot #72. I’ve requested Delectable add it.

On the nose; perfumed strawberries, black raspberries, dark cherries, cherries dark moist soil, blueberries, light baking spiceand field violets.

The body is full and rich. Tannins soft and beautiful yet a firm backbone. Fruits are candied in style. Blackberries, black raspberries, dark cherries, cherries, creamy raspberries, light minerality and dry top soil, dry stone, black cherry cola/licorice, excellent acid and beautiful polished, long finish.

Photos of; the horse that pulled the sleigh of grapes to the truck and the team picking the Truquilemu Vineyard.

Beautiful on the nose but initially closed and tannic. Day 2 and it really opened up. Will try and hold off on drinking my other 2 bottles soon- great aging potential

Herbs, lemon, lime, blueberry, rock slate. Structure is balanced. Tannins are present without being overbearing. This is top notch. Give it 30 minutes to open.
