This was neutral blackberryish and a bit rustic as well as rather short with highish acidity. I remember this wine having been much better in the past. I am disappointed with this. Any comments appreciated. 13.5%. Used this as a cooking wine.

Bright ruby color. Aromas of smoky cherries and sweet plums, bell pepper, cola, sweet coffee, some cigar box. Light-medium bodied with soft tannins and medium acid. Tangy cherries and red plums mix with bell pepper and red peppers. Lean, a bit tart, but fun stuff for the price.

PnP. Not a big nose, but more on the spicy herby side. Palate has good acidity, but a bit short and hollow back end with vanilla oak. Not much substance, but generally doesn’t overdo it except for a bit too much oak for me. Simple and easy. Red fruit, dark cherry. As good as you could hope for 6 bucks from a supermarket in Santiago. https://winediplomats.com/

Very high acidity, tart blackberries, vanilla and a touch of sweetness became more enjoyable after a 2 hour decant but more sweet and sugary.

Un vin du plaisir toujours satisfaisant pour le prix. Belle structure dans ce millésime.

Drack till spaghetti och köttförssås. Var ok, men inte mer.

Cellaraid - Cabernet Sauvignon Taste-Off Dinner (Tonny's Restaurant): savoury, with blackberry, cloves, thyme, rosemary, fennel, tomato leaf; felt like an Italian (strangely)
