Naranjo Torontel 2019

Skin-contact Torontel/Torrontés from very old vines (nearly 80 years old) in Loncomilla, a sub-region of the Maule Valley in Chile. 8 months of skin maceración, hence the intense orange color. Very fragrant, aromas of tropical fruit aromas (guava). Round, complex, smooth — 5 years ago

T.H. Maule Carignan 2008

Great find at the Polvo wine bar in Santiago. I've never had Carignan but this jumps out with blackberry, licorice, woody flavour. Nothing subtle about it. High acid, but all round lovely wine. More research required. — 8 years ago

@Michael Bleszynski I am in Chile regularly on business, and I do enjoy Santiago because it is safe compared to other SA cities and there are some good restos. One gripe is there are not many wine bars in town to try out different producers. I also find that a lot of places have wine from the major producers but I'm getting better at finding some independent shops.

@AgeyFixey That’s pretty cool being able to be there frequently. Bocanariz was pretty decent. Really enjoyed aqui este coco. Hope you find some great wineries!

@Michael Bleszynski i usually try and get to Bocanriz on each visit! I tried for coco last time but it was closed that day. If you are ever back, try Borago. Unbelievable, but it is not cheap

Canto Sur Carménère Blend 2021

Medium ruby in color; plums, bell peppers, and paprika on the nose; medium acidity; medium plus tannins; tastes like raspberries, jalapeño, and wet slate with a long finish. It's a really interesting flavor. It's not for everyone, but well made. I like it. — a year ago

Single Ferment Series 215 BC Ferment Secano Interior Portezuelo Pais 2019

First wine grape planted in North America? You have my attention. Fascinating history of this varietal that I highly recommend reading up on if you’re lucky to have a friend like @Brendan Devine buy you the Wine Grapes tome. The wine itself is really tasty, desert-like in your mouth and has that full almost raisiny note that a lot of natural wines have. Give it a shot. — 5 years ago
