  Le nez est sur les fruits noirs et un peu les poivrons verts.
  
  En bouche, c'est assez ample et tout de même soyeux, très fruité avec des tannins fondus at recouverts. Finale correct.
  Pas méchant surtout pour le prix!

  P&P. Color dark red with purple hues, medium+ body. Nose and flavors of dark berries, cherry, mocha, and vanilla. Decent mouthfeel, medium low acid, soft low-medium tannins. This is put together quite nicely in an approachable style, and made me think a couple times I should have bought another bottle or two. Decent QPR.

  Color: Intense dark red, with blackish violet tones.
  Aroma: It shows a lot of fresh red fruit, with nice berries and cherry, which mix with toasted and mocha aromas, and subtle vanilla notes.
  Palate: It is a complex, very well structured and balanced wine, with soft and round tannins, which tend over to a long and persistent finish.
  A good, simple, easy to handle Cabernet that is fruity and tasty. It has some root beer, blackberry and spice aromas that work the nose, followed by slightly medicinal but generally big and bold black-fruit flavors that shows some oak and burnt tobacco.

  Another very good Cab Sav from Chile. Oak, fruit and earth on the nose are very pleasing. Medium body. Dense and matted. Smooth but somehow dusty and unclear. Fantastic QPR. Enjoyable.
