  New World Tasting (Crystal Wine): Nose: This was a serious wine. Seductive notes of dark cocholate, classic cab notes of blackberry and raspberries. Some smoke and a touch of cut celery which I always like.
  
  Taste: This was a stunning wine with great intensity and a sensible restraint. The bottle was popped for barely and hour and already it was showing quite well: textured dark fruits, wonderful oak integration and spice. Still primary but I can't help think how this would taste in several hours or in several years time. Well structured, the tannins were grippy but welcome. This is probably one of the few Chilean cabernets that I have enjoyed. This one's a keeper

  Trip to Chile; 8/5/2010-8/9/2010 (Chile): On the nose: lots of fruits, leather and coffee. Oak is also present but it's totally integrated into the wine.
  On the palate: it's full bodied, with powerful but elegant tannic structure and long aftertaste.
  Decanting is recommended. This is really complex and impressive. 93+
