  May 11, 2019 - Popped and poured based on previous note.
  Single piece cork, minimal soak. No seepage.
  Good density, dark red with purple, youthful appearance in the glass.
  
  This is the most distinctive nose on a red wine i have tasted in years, or propbably about 1000+ bottles. Granted, I never drink chilean wine. It’s a hypothetical hybrid of buis (cat urine), malted pineapple juice and cherry cough syrup. A fantastic one to serve blind at a tasting.
  
  On the palate, it’s a different wine altogether. Savoury, red fruited, lots of minerality. Barely entering secondary development. Good length. The retro olfaction on the finish gives a very slight suggestion of the nose.
  Puzzling disconnect. Single bt purchase in Santiago.
  
  32% carignan
  26% malbec
  22% syrah
  20% cs
  
  Hold, would be better with further insight into its development. Not worthwhile at the moment. I would revisit in 2024 or later.

  January 17, 2016 - Disappointing... an awkward nose after opening and very closed, so decanted and drank it over 4h. Nevertheless, it didn't get there, even though it got a lot better with air. Has some fruit, but is unbalanced, muted nose, short finish. Not a bad overall wine, but not worth the price.
