A few days late in posting the Wednesday Wine Committee wines. Standard format with 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds and 1 dessert wine. All served blind.
@Delectable Wine : This is the Martin Estate Puerta Dorada Vineyard Cabernet Port. I didn’t see it in the database.
Fig, nutmeg, clove and rich mixed berry pie. Lots of similarities to port, but the finish never goes to the traditional graham cracker richness, and not as lengthy of a lingering finish. Lighter than expected, and definitely not super sweet. More similar to a heavily extracted cab with age. I guessed Napa Cab dessert wine. — 6 years ago

Cedar, dusty earth, dried herbs, strawberry and raspberry, all wrapped in a gauze of rock dust and pulverized dried flowers. Amazing acidity and a faint saltiness in the finish. 100+ year old Cinsault bush vines from the nooks and crannies of Itata. Dr. Terroir (soil geologist Pedro Parra) is putting his terroir where his mouth is. Roughly 30% whole cluster, but 100% delicious. — 4 years ago

complex, spicy fruit, white pepper and a hint of black olive tapenade — 6 years ago
Medium bodied, with sharp acidity. Peaches & salt. Hard to beat this with a fresh dorada. Gotta love those volcanoes!

Bought this at Republica de la Parra. Node has berries, wet leaves. Taste is a bit thin, berries, soft on tannins but they're there. Had it with pasta, would go well with light meats. recommended. — 4 years ago
A Cinsault planted in sandy, quartz soils. On the nose, cherry and earth notes plus hints of pea and a touch of sulfur. Soft in texture, it has gentle tannins with a little chalk and a rich aftertaste. A flavorful wine. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, March 2020)

Livio Pastorino
Temporada de hojas tiernas de la parra, ideal para preparar “sarmale” (niños envueltos). Justamente con este plato acompañamos el vino Castellino, muy buen precio, vino joven de mesa, en vista: rojo profundo con reflejos violetas, en nariz: muy frutado, recuerdos a frutas rojas, negras, ligero, fresco, con notas especiadas, en boca: nuevamente marca la fruta, muy fresco, equilibrado, suave en tanninos, me gusto, temperatura de servicio 14°C a 16° saludos. — 4 years ago
