90 Points

Sunday, October 1, 2017 - James Suckling - Great Wines of the Andes (The Presidio, SF): (48% Carmenère, 31% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot)
M. Rolland consulting.
Intense, precisely-ripe, and detailed blackcurrant fruit on the nose, set nicely in oak spice. Slight pyrazines but very little - very surprising considering the large proportion of Carmenere.
Silky tannins. Very slight Malbec-y impression of weedy plum. Dark and glossy.
