Stored in a passive cellar since purchase. This is past its prime, but still pleasant to drink. Faint notes of red currants and blackberries, blended with earth, and a touch of nutmeg and cedar. Very pleasant, medium-length finish.

Big surprise. This wine showed real depth and power with the kind of smokiness you sometimes get in Graves. Bought a case of this for $14.00 in 2004. Wish I had bought more. 5 more to go.

Full bodied and good qpr, but don't really understand the 91 pt rating from WS. A good, but relatively simple Chilean Cab that does seem to have several years of life left. I'll wait to open my last bottle and try a lengthy decant.

Bottle was woody and sour; not pleasant; had to dump it.

My last bottle. I bought a case many years ago. It was rated WS 90. They have all been good.
