Despite being 5 years old, there was very little color loss around the edges.
Aroma: Lots of black currant, plum, cooked fruit, black cherry skin, with a hint of anise on the finish.
Taste: Black Cherry skin, plum, cooked fruit, blackberry skin with a slight herbaceous finish. Med+ acid. Quite a bargain. — 5 years ago

Are you kidding me?! Got this at the winery a few years ago. It's unreal how youthful this is. The color has faded to that of a dark Pinot, but very little bricking. Earthy notes, followed by fresh and decayed red fruits, there are still intense tannins that are so well integrated into the wine that it last on the palate for what seems to be hours. Birth year spectacular. #birthyear — 8 years ago

캘리포니아 나파 와인은 딱히 나쁘다라고 꼽을 것이 없이 대부분 괜찮은 수준이다. 그런데 그렇다고 아~! 이게 나파의 와인이구나 하는 특징도 없다. 굳이 특징이라고 말한다면, 프랑스의 세심함도 스페인의 강렬함도 없는, 그냥 이것도 저것도 아닌 애매한 것이 특징이랄까. — 8 years ago

Chakana is great. This one is a Malbec, not a blend. Worth every penny. — 9 years ago
Surprisingly light. It starts with a floral overlay - it's there then dissipates into a light finish and then gone. Any easy drink — 10 years ago
