There are some red wines that should only be had with dinner because they are so boring on their own. And then there are red wines which offer a really nice experience in the glass and don't need food. This wine is in the latter category. A nice experience in the glass - I give it a 90 because I would happily drink this on its own a second time. But it would definitely not merit anything beyond the 90.

(Viña Tabalí Red Blend Reserva Especial) This blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Syrah, and 15% Merlot displays a meaty nose. Complex notes of red and black fruits are carried by a firm structure. Elqui and Limarí: Chile’s Northern Valleys

Wine exlodes in my mouth, filling it and then lingering. Outstanding.

A very well balanced assemblage, rounded and voluptuous, with the strength of syrah softened by cabernet and merlot blends
