Hangt in het glas, dikke tranen. Zwarte braam en kersen in de neus, vleugje vanilla en teer. In de mond aroma’s van zwart besfruit, zachte tannines. Lange afdronk.

Dark concentrate cassis, nice power, just enter the enjoyable periode now. A typical south american CS. Just missing more complexity and drive or a longer finish for a higher rate. Enjoy over the next 5 years.

Smells a bit like Carmenere. Soft and easy fruit to it.

Distinctively New World Cabernet here..... On nose: baking spices, blackberry , dark chocolate . On palate: clear follow through of above flavour notes, as well as tart cassis, faint mesquite charcoal, and a smoky note.....good balance and surprisingly resolved tannins for a 4 year old wine.....very good fruit( 50 year old vines) ....not quite my style....14.5% alcohol and persistent oak notes after a 1 hour decant . Having said that , many will like this wine......

Simple blackcurrant flavoured wine. Low tannin and eminently drinkable.

Aromas of dark blackcurrant jelly, redcurrant, cassis, cacao, cedar, tobacco and sweet spices. The palate is full-bodied and rich with ripe juicy dark fruits and ripe tannins. The fruit is on the edge of being jammy, but just gets away with it, there is good balance and acidity which ensures it is not too heavy, but don't get me wrong this is a new world, big on fruit and full-on. The finish is medium length.

Nez de fruit cuit (mûre) et d'eucalyptus. fruits rouges confits (Yo). En bouche, notes végétales, tanins fermes, un peu carrés, notes boisées assez dominantes. Boisé, alcoolisé et astringent (Yo).

This is my favorite style of cabernet sauvignon. Lots of grape flavor, fruity, round and generous, complex and concentrated, impressive QPR. Opaque color and aggressive nose, probably will get better with more time but already very pleasurable.

Ok Chilean Cabernet. Nothing impressive, but offering some good qualities. Very typical Chilean Cab. Not very complex, I would say the value is about $US20. Don't expect anything special, but if you want an affordable Cab at a good QPR, this will work.

Dark inky colour to the slim watery rim, blackcurrant arm cedar on the nose. The blackcurrant the, continues in the mouth with lots of complexity, good tannic structure and flavours. Still very young but drinkable after a decant, a seriously good wine.
