Wine and cheese. Good with EVOO and Havarti and Manchego. Just ok with Gruyère . — 4 years ago
Okay, no one is confusing this with a Chateau Margeaux, but that's only because it lacks the really deep complexity. And many other ways, it has the rich depth and smooth tannins and even some of the aromas of the real thing. Lovely one. — 5 years ago

Foot of the Andes Mountains on banks of Maipo River in Upper Maipo Valley, 650 meters above sea level, vineyard dates back to mid-19th century, when first pre-phylloxera French varieties were brought to Chile, deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruits & mineral notes, a blend of 92% Cab Sauv & 8% Cab Franc, aged for 15 month in French oak (65% new). On the palate flavors cherry & blackberry with powerful tannins, long finish, very tight, ending with mineral and tobacco notes. Needs ten years. Tasting Sample! — 6 years ago

It smells like walking through the woods and into a chocolate shop with dark mahogany shelves and eucalyptus displays...maybe some black pepper kernels are on the counters. This is all a good thing, not bad. Good acidity with lingering tannins. The eucalyptus and wood comes through more than chocolate, which is more cacao nibs than anything. The fruit is dark red currant with some tartness and that black peppers pops it’s head again. Good with Korean style beef. Probably has a few more years of development, no more. — 6 years ago
