This was one of the best wines of the Chilean wine event in Toronto (IMHO) and was truly a stand out. And to top it off it is reasonably priced and there is some still in the LCBO. I have grabbed a few. Dark in color with a nice black berry nose. On the mid palate the wine impresses with some lovely, bold black cherries to match the nose. On the mid palate the wine displays some smooth velvety tannins, lovely dryness and complexity. The depth of this wine is shockingly good when one factors in the price. I would give this wine a 88-89. Yumm. Run out and grab some while you can … Why are you still here … GO!!!
