WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Intense purple red color. It has a complex nose, with red and black fruit such as maqui berry and spices such as red pepper, vanilla and dill. The palate is wide, of medium acidity and round tannins with fruit such as sarsaparilla and maqui berry. Medium long finish.
TASTING NOTES:
Spicy, yet exuberant, with black and red plums, cumin, fennel and some fine mineral accents. Pure and bright with a densely packed, full-bodied palate. Powerful yet tense and polished tannins. 85% carmenere, 12% syrah and 3% petit verdot.
– James Suckling, 93 pts.
Tart cherry and chalk appear on the nose of this full-bodied red. Intense fruit flavors are balanced by refreshing acidity. It has smooth tannins, a mineral character and a pleasant oaky finish.
