Rich and concentrated on the nose – black raspberries, perhaps leaning a bit too jammy, plenty of cedar, the whole thing practically jumps out o fthe glass. On the palate, the jamminess is thankfully absent, and the glass is overloaded with berries, strong tannins, and a long, smoky finish. Quite nice on is own, and I imagine even better with a slab of ribeye.

Very fleshy, with significant dryness on the finish. This feels a bit raw and unformed at this stage which is fair, and will benefit from a few more years to come together. The fruit is quite attractive and energized with acidity. Definitely an unusual style for a Cab, but nothing awry and this could turn out to be a great bargain at about $30.

Cabernet sauvignon? The opulent fruit made me feel that this was an excellent brunello di Montalcino. But sure, those up-front dark tannins contributed to the power.

Mörkt blåröd färg. Ung fruktig doft med inslag av mörka körsbär, svarta vinbär, blåbär choklad, mint och ceder. Frisk syra. Fruktig smak. Lättillgängligt men tanninerna finns. Gillar det skarpt. Har i princip ingen erfarenhet av chilensk cab. Klart positivt överraskad. Kan drickas nu om man gillar syra.

Should have saved the last one for at least 3 more years. This juice is not ready yet.
