  December 25, 2022 - Dry, full bodied and medium tannins , aged in french oak for 22 months, 70% new and 30% second and third use.
  
  Decanting for an hour is recommended. Nose and palate Show same nice intensity. Fruit forward nicely balanced wine. Intense notes of blueberry, cassis and black currant and as nice oaky chocolate notes. Finish was very nice and long, left a distinctive bitter taste at first, later on leaves a very nice and powerful finish combined of black fruit and oaky notes. Would recommend to drink it at 8 years of age ideally. Nice experience

  January 26, 2022 - Disappointing. Not bad, but not close to elite. Overall flat affect. Good fruit, too light structure and very squared off.

  January 8, 2022 - 91+ Kai is a Legendary wine from Errazuriz and at 6 years of age this wine is in the heart of it’s drinking window though this bottle would suggest that it still needs a few years or a long decant.
  
  After two hours the nose starts to open with sweet blueberry and fig notes and elegant oak aromas of dusty chocolate and clove.
  
  Medium bodied with velvety tannins and wildly persistent acidity.
  
  Flavours are largely primary with blackberry and blueberry dominating. Long finish.
  
  Drink 2024-2027+
