Reserve Estate Bottled Maipo Valley Merlot

Heavily oaked and I wouldn’t call my self over-sensitive to the stuff. A better than decent wine but so many others at this price-point that would bring me more satisfaction.

Dark berries and a hint of spice. Strong tannins.

This is a great value Merlot - first had this in Santiago circa 2002, and it is very consistent thru vintage. Deep & dark, distinct chocolate note along with plums, cassis, vanilla & sweet spices. Firm & plush, to decent finish. At 8 yrs this is very similar to profile @ release.

Tasted single blind - Dark to the core. Expresso, mocha, eucalyptus, and licorice. Plum fruits. Broad and imposing. Boisenberry leads a chalky tannin finish that coats the mouth

Very deep in color with taste of blueberries. Enjoyable on its own or with snacks.

V13. Very nice wine. Herbal and cedar nose. Blueberry and blackberry fruit. Soft, green peppercorn mocha and leather finish. Well balanced, nice food wine.

Weird aftertaste. Not a huge fan but still drinkable. Brandon says it tastes like earth.

Not too bad. Fruity and sweet. Had it at Christmas party w Tans and Ongs. Bought it at BJs in Summer '17

Amazing wine! Medium bodied, some spice. Delicious

Salted butter first taste with tight fruit finish. Very interesting.
