Medium body, black fruits, earthy with a hint of liquorice, fine tannin.

If you can get past just a touch of green-ness, this is a pretty serious wine - dark and elegant, very well-balanced, with some potential longevity.

Deep purple color, exotic spices and blackberry. The nose has lavender, rosemary. Would be great with grilled meat.

At Mark Paul's for last minute barbecue. Wine straight from Chile. Ruby color and nice floral nose. Enough acids to go well with the food. Got the leftovers.
