Kuyen Valle Del Maipo Syrah Blend 2015

Big, lush, juicy. Ripe blueberry, dark cherry—bursting with fruit. A big dash of sweet spice and soft tannin. Feels indulgent like Christmas — 6 years ago

Gran Reserva Medalla Real Maipo Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Big and brooding. Plum, currant, toasty oak, vanilla, and mocha notes. I have long been a big fan of the Medella Real Gran Reserva. Relatively easy to find. Great price. Always reliable. It’s one of those wines that will appeal to both the newly-initiated and experienced tasters. I also love that it’s so multifaceted. You can drink it alone or with a burger, and it has enough structure to pair with a steak. You won’t go wrong always having some of this on hand. — 7 years ago

Marqués de Casa Concha Maipo Valley Syrah 2013

처음보다 하루 이틀 지나고 먹을때 훨씬 훌륭함 충분한 풀바디감을 비롯하여 갈수록 과실향까지 더해져 마시기 편해짐 다만 칠레와인 특성상 단맛을 싫어하는 사람에겐 조금 꺼려질수도 있을듯함 — 9 years ago

Primus Maipo Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Well...I must say that this was one of the more surprising wines I’ve had in a while. Picked up from the bargain-bin at the local Hy-Vee for $9. After opening, it was a bit tedious and, to be honest, I didn’t think it was going to come around. We didn’t finish the bottle so just stuffed the cork back in the bottle and stuck it in the basement. The next day, I wasn’t particularly excited to revisit the bottle but I’m so pleased that I did. Cassis, tobacco, baking spices, leather, and graphite on the nose. Cassis, dark cherry and earth on the palate. The structure propped it all up very well. Long-ish finish...I just didn’t expect this from a 7 year-old grocery store wine. Good with food or on its own. Should last until 2021. — 7 years ago

Reserve Estate Bottled Maipo Valley Merlot 2013

A merlot with a tannin backbone! The dark cherry profile was subdued by a slight tobacco backstop. Had it with a cold mango pasta salad. Next time it will be with grilled ribeye. Enough tannin to put a case in the cellar.

Bought this for the first time at Costco for a very reasonable price. Happily satisfied with it and will purchase it again, but I see on here that is sold out. CRAP!!!! — 9 years ago

Don't trust that it is sold out from what they say on here. Often it is sold out from the vineyards stock but distributors still have it out there. And sometimes the vineyards have bottle but the distributor does not.

Lota Maipo Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2006

Cousiño Macul’s Premium wine, intense black currant notes, chocolate and mint with a vanilla and slightly bitter tobacco finish with some oaky notes. This is a big wine, better decanted and needs some food to compliment it. Modern new world wine, but after over a decade in bottle quite balanced and good to drink now. — 7 years ago
