  Darkly colored with a nose which is anything but shy and reveals its origin much more than its composition. Actually its impossible to tell it is a Syrah while the nose is archetypaly Chilean. Intense expressive and concentrated wine with aromas of blueberry, intense herbacity along with lifted minty notes. Very ready to drink on the palate with smooth tannins, quite full body, clean and satisfying aftertaste. An excellent wine, a fine example of its style at a killer q/p ratio.

  Very enjoyable and well-made wine that stood well against 3 other bottles costing multiple times as much. The nose is more Chilean than syrah with intense herbaciousness reminiscent of carmenere, sweet blackcurrant juice, chocolate, loam and hints of mint. Medium to full-bodied with velvety tannins, rich and ripe fruit and balancing acidity. Medium to long aftertaste. Ready to enjoy and went perfectly with a variety of meat dishes including difficult ones such as beef tartare. Great value at around €20.

  Very dark, opaq. Expressive nose of cumin, lavender, blackberry, chocolate, glossy print, ripe fig and loamy minerality. Full-bodied, firm but fine-grained tannins, rich and ripe fruit and moderate yet sufficient acidity. Long, spicy aftertaste and good aging potential. Great qpr.

  the wine was not balanced, also to acid, It smells like Blackberry, Game, and Bell Pepper. It tastes like Game, Meaty, Fur, Baker's Yeast, and Cabbage. The body is Medium/Full. The wine has Leathery texture. The wine finishes Long. but after all the aftertaste is not enjoyable neither agreeable, still i will give this wine another chance may be in 3 years to see if it has a mutation ( i don´t think only evolving is the answer )

  Opened this bottle on a lazy Saturday evening having a nice long discussion with my dad about all sorts of things. We were both pleasantly surprised with the quality of this wine. The bouquet was extremely fruity. The wine has a nice long velvety taste. Decanted with the norm decanter from menu which definately added to the immediate explosion of taste. This one will stay on my wish list for a while!
