T.H. Maule Carignan 2008

Great find at the Polvo wine bar in Santiago. I've never had Carignan but this jumps out with blackberry, licorice, woody flavour. Nothing subtle about it. High acid, but all round lovely wine. More research required. — 7 years ago

@Michael Bleszynski I am in Chile regularly on business, and I do enjoy Santiago because it is safe compared to other SA cities and there are some good restos. One gripe is there are not many wine bars in town to try out different producers. I also find that a lot of places have wine from the major producers but I'm getting better at finding some independent shops.

@AgeyFixey That’s pretty cool being able to be there frequently. Bocanariz was pretty decent. Really enjoyed aqui este coco. Hope you find some great wineries!

@Michael Bleszynski i usually try and get to Bocanriz on each visit! I tried for coco last time but it was closed that day. If you are ever back, try Borago. Unbelievable, but it is not cheap

Reserva I Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2014

It's a decent bland of Cab Sav and Shiraz. Just right amount of spice combine with the dryness of Cab Sav. I love it! Pleasantly surprised :) — 9 years ago

VIGNO Maule Carignane 2013

This did NOT suck! Luscious red and blue fruit, lavender essence, brilliant energy/acidity, some exotic spicyness dissolving into some tonal smoky minerality. Moderately long finish. I was not familiar with this producer but let the somm (at a restaurant with JB chops) guide me to something that made wonderful music with a brilliant pork collar feast. 100% Carignan...perhaps my first from Chile. And still a baby...should be even more fantastic in the 2020's. — 9 years ago

Valle del Maule Red Blend 2002

Another winner from the 2002 vintage, this is a cabernet-driven bordeaux-style blend. The nose has really cool hints of rum of all things (maybe from the barrels?), along with older cab leather notes and hints of lavendar. Nicely balanced with a great finish, this is great wine to share with my former post-doc Monica Soler as our last bottle in Chile! — 9 years ago

1865 Single Vineyard Maule Valley Malbec 2014

A decent mid-range Chilean malbec, rich and tasty, as it should be. More on bitter than on sweet side for a typical malbec. Not cheap though. — 7 years ago
