Community Tasting Note

The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine:

Monday, December 5, 2022 - Retail $20. Heavy bottle. Under cork. 100%(?) Cabernet Sauvignon. Every time I open a bottle of Chilean wine, I think of my trip there a few years ago and wish that I had extended my trip. It is a fascinating country producing some terrific wines. Case in point. Heavy bottle aside (come on #DoBetter), this wine, which is likely on the shelves for around fifteen bucks, is certainly a bargain. Dark in color and aromas with loads of cassis, black pepper, mocha, and sage, the palate is quite compelling. Fruit abounds along with some weight, texture, and complexity. While few would mistake this for a First Growth from Bordeaux, at under twenty bucks? You have a fantastic wine and still make your car payment.
