This is a blend of 85% Cabernet & 15% Syrah and grown at an elevation of 2100 feet with an average vine age of 25 years. 50-50% fermentation in oak and stainless steel. At a retail price point of $20, it’s quite good. The tannins are soft and round. It shows a lot of brighter red fruits of dark cherries, strawberries and some blackberries, touch of pepper, crushed rocks and dry top soil, dark red fresh florals, good acidity and nice finish. Producer history and notes...In the early 1990’s, Bruno Prats (Chateau Cos The) and Paul Pontallier (Chateau Margaux) discovered the high caliber of Cabernet Sauvignon being made from Chile’s Alto Maipo region. They partnered Felipe de Solminihac, a renowned Chilean agronomist, oenologist and winemaker in the region. They purchased 45 acres in the 'Quebrada de Macul', considered the heart of the Maipo Valley vineyards and Viña Aquitania was born. In January 2003, Ghislain de Montgolfier (CEO of Bollinger Champagne), became the fourth partner. Good list of French pedigree involved in Aquitania. — 8 years ago

Sadly this is the last vintage of Quebrada Seca for De Martino as the vineyard will be rented to someone else. Again, this wine over-deliveries. A beauty showing enormous complexity: ripe melons, sea spray, chalk, wood (not oak), lees. Creaminess balanced by a lingering finish led by acid and saltness. — 8 years ago

Viña Cono Sur Chardonnay / DO Valley De Casablanca / Chile. Herkullista. Monitahoinen viini, leveä maku, jossa kermaisuutta, paahteisuutta ja hedelmällisyyttä. Monivivahteinen ja yllätyksellinen. Pitkä jälkimaku jota maistelee mielellään. — 9 years ago

Unique wine! Blend of 75 % Cabernet Sauvignon , 6% Cabernet franc, 16 % Petit Verdot, 3 % merlot. Aromas of grapes, leather and dirt. On the tongue flavors of cigar, oak, leather and tart berrys . Slightly tawny on the finish, but smooth and well rounded. Yummy!!!!!!! The is a definite favorite!!!! — 8 years ago
