Nice, fruity, smooth! Black cherry, plum, berry, oak. Full body, medium+ acidity and tannin. Long cherry finish. Not super complex, but a very easy drinker.

Very sad to see this last bottle go. Consistent with previous. This is a very savage and unique wine, well worth seeking out.

This was sooo damn good... One of the best young reds that I've had in a while, bar none. And this from someone who drinks almost no New World wine. Lovely red fruit, funk, greens. Evolved very rapidly in the glass, probably due to the lack of sulphur. Ethereal and pure. Lightweight but not without real substance. I liked this even more than the El Pais de Quenehuao we had a while back. This was a bit less savage, but …

Very wild and raw. Not at all like any other wine I've had from Chile - it actually reminded me more of a Loire red. Makes me wonder how many other interesting grapes/terriors are out there and being obscured by poor winemaking.

Same impression this time, minus overt reduction. Ripe cherry, pungent mustard greens, black pepper and muddy earth. Excellent acidity. Does well with a few hours of air in a decanter. Unique and delicious wine.

Decanted. Somewhat reductive and muddy at first, though highly aromatic and enjoyable. Drinking very well after about an hour, and better still after 2 1/2. Huge fresh tart cherry juice, lilac, fresh mustard greens, rocky earth. Rich, juicy, excellent acidity, characterful and complex, good stuff.
