Mainly Cabernet with Malbec, Carmenere, and Petit Verdot. Full bodied with nice acidity showing chocolate covered cherry, black currant, eucalyptus, and mocha. Less green than most Chilean wines I’ve tasted. Oak is well integrated. Wine evolves nicely in the glass. Drinking great with wild boar but no rush on the ‘13.

Starts out a little tight/astringent and lots of pyrizine.
Opens up in 20mins. Tannin becomes silky with French oak, ripe blackberry, black plum/cherries and tobacco. Solid finish mod acid

Deep purplish red. Dirtiness on the attack that dissipates quickly. Followed by a dark and juicy nose with sweet spices, cassis, graphite, black cherries, and light cigar box. Maybe even a touch metallic after an hour. Medium tannins (6.5/10) and medium plus bodied. Layers of blue fruit to start then black cherries, earthiness, licorice, and gravel. A touch dry. Long and gritty finish. Drink till 2023.

A bit too young still. When drinking give it a few hours in a decanter.

Purple red color. Expressive nose with typical Cab S flavors as cocoa, bay leaf, almond paste, licorice and all of this in all modesty though prominently.

Dark red intransparant. Already a bit thin on the edge. The first nose a lot of broth and eucalyptus. In the mouth the waves follow shortly upon another. Enough acids for a nice feeling. Long finish!
