Oops, found this in a dark corner of the cellar and though someone gave me this. Much to my surprise better than expected and a decent glass of wine. Yes, totally a Chilean nose, lots of mint eucalyptus (my wife says menthol) but after about 20 mins the edges soften and you get a little lavender (?) or spring flowers. Palette is a little short but does show some mocha, wet earth and a bit of bramble. Not the longest finish but certainly a decent enough quaff. Like I say, it was an unexpected surprise that it was a good drink.

Nothing special but still solid value with big fruit and spice. Nose and finish are moderate. Tannins are soft.

Good value drop. Rich and full bodied. Probably needs another year.
