Community Tasting Notes 14

    December 14, 2017 - Still dark ruby red, immediate nose of graphite and green pepper, reminiscent of Graves...to my surprise. Medium full body with dark red fruits and notes of undergrowth. Decent complexity and a nice medium long finish. If tasted blind I would've guessed bordeaux in a warm year...perhaps the age has toned down the fruit a bit, or that Chile cab sauvs really are this good now. It still doesn't have as much structure and acidity as really good bordeaux, but this was very very good and well worth it for the price!

    November 25, 2013 - To be honest, I'm a little surprised by some of the reviews of this wine, here. Very nice wine with unique slate-like, smooth tannins. Quite the easy bottle to drink, for novices and aficionados alike. Recommended.

    October 23, 2013 - Buen vino de mesa. Ideal para acompañar pastas o quesos suaves. No entiendo porque desarrolla un pequeño toque ácido, pero vale la pena dado la relación precio - calidad.

    September 11, 2012 - This wine definitely requires decanting for at least 30 minutes to an hour. It opens up with dark fruit and spice. Great tannins and very easy to drink. Have had other wines twice the price that I didn't enjoy this much. Looking for more for aging.

    September 8, 2012 - Very smooth with a lite acid finish. Gets better as it breathes. Complimented the Italian sausage and tomato basil sauce. Over fresh tri-color pasta
