One of Chile's finest premier wines. Dark and deep inky purple red. A blend of 57% Carmenère, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Merlot and aged in 100% new French oak, the wine displays aromas of ripe concentrated red fruit with sweet spice. The palate has flavors of plum, raspberry and cherry and notes of figs, vanilla and mocha. Complex structure with round velvet tannins that are long lasting on the finish and ending with some espresso notes. Tasting Sample. — 10 years ago

Everything you'd expect from a great small batch bourbon. Sweet caramel and very moreish but handle with care. 57% alc/vol but drinks far easier. Great stuff. — 11 years ago

Welcome to Friday and I have picked up a Right Bank Bordeaux Blend from the state Washington the 2013 DeLille Cellar D2. 57% Merlot, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.

Upon opening, there is beautifully expressive dark fruit wafting over the rim of the glass with a lasting impression of blackberries, black currant, black cherry, plum, sweet ripe strawberry, cassis, cherry licorice, and sweet tobacco.

With the first taste on the palate there is lovely blackberry, black cherry, kirsch, strawberry, black currant, green bell pepper, and bit of leather, and a smokey note.

This wine is well balanced with medium + acidity and a smooth mouth feel with fine sandy tannins.

For a second lable wine this is a hell of a deal. For a young wine this is drinking well right now. I would recommend this wine all day long.

Have a great weekend. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 10 years ago

Not 100% opaque. Looks like the poor of a Carneros Pinot. Low ABV (12.5) and the legs confirm that. A nose of wet straw and unpaved road dust, leather, very little fruit. The nose contradicts totally what is expressed on the palette. Hot, intense, concentrated red (not dark) fruit and the spritelyness and acidity of a Beaujolais Nouveau. Unlike Beaujolais, however, this has tannins a plenty and a sturdiness that could see it paired with a chuck roast. This wines differs greatly from its more southerly Rhoné cousins in just so many ways. It is so difficult to find an affordable (is $57 affordable?) Rotie, I'm glad I didn't pass this up. — 13 years ago
