| This is an amazing red wine I first came across at Target, of all places. A delicious wine to either pair with a meal or as a stand alone glass. Great fruit flavors in this bottle. I would be willing to bet that you will not be disappointed when you try this! |

| I liked this value wine form Chile, it's a grape varietal that I don't often drink but it's not that widely available either. Good cherry and anise flavors roll down the tongue, but the finish is a little bit chewy for my tastes. Overall a good value. |

| Yes, it perhaps is SLIGHTLY overoaked, but I really really dont mind when theres just so much balance between chocolate, blackcurrant, raspberry, vanilla, and a tiny bit of pepper, in a seductive, creamy, stately package. Well made. For an excellent representation of Chile- seek this wine out. |

| This is a different style than previous vintages. Lots of vanilla oak, dark chocolate, and dark dark fruit on the nose. The same on the pallet with some firm tannins. Fairly well-balanced but could use some more complexity. Tasty though. |

| Same problem as before - This wine needs a couple hours of exposure to O2. Really nice dark chocolate, cigar box, and stately oak. The wood is exquisite... Oh, to bathe in that barrel for a year or two, or even an hour... free of all my cares... |

| I like that this is a wine that most people haven't had and you probably don't see that often, what I don't like is the over oaked and dirt flavors that dominate the wine. Cherries are still there and some nice anise action on the backend, but otherwise its just ok. |

I like this wine. Wonderful tastes -- smokey, chocolate, not
spicey like a cdr. Reading tastng notes here and there, I suspect people
had some bad bottles, possibly not that uncommon for an inexpensive
wine. So far, each bottle I have had has been very enjoyable.

| The taste of Chile...literally. |

| Wine people talk about "terroir" the taste of a specific region, coming through in the wine. This Carmenere has the taste of the Rapel Valley. I find this wine quite extraordinary. The bouquet is a little spicy. The rich medium-bodied wine is full of interesting flavors, cocoa, truffle, and on the finish, mint! This wine is still rather mellow, and would pair well with red meats, mushroom dishes, or a robust cheese. |

| 1st sip nothing much but dark berries. So I decanted it for 2 hrs. Perfect pairing w/ Spiced Moroccan Beef w/ Polenta (white truffle oil). Nose of berries, anise and vanilla w/an oily texture. 2nd day, a bit boring w/Beef stroganoff. |

| Smooth and reserved, slightly musky with a hint of pepper. Very laid-back wine, a bit more punch and I would call it "elegant". |
