The 2015 quality producer reds out of; Puente Alto, Maipo, Pirque and Aconcagua are strong considerations for your cellar or temp & humidity control cabinets. The fruit is sensational and the acidity is beautiful.

The nose is ripe, ruby floral and show slightly candied fruits of; blackberries, blueberries, dark cherries, black raspberries. Some creamy raspberries, black cherry licorice/cola, dark semi-sweet soil, nice baking spices, cedar and fresh red & dark florals.

The body is gorgeous and full. The tannins are rounded, firm and gluey. The fruits are ripe, slightly candied and fresh. blackberries, blueberries, dark cherries, black raspberries, some creamy raspberries, strawberries, black cherry licorice/cola, dark, nice herbal notes, semi-sweet dark soil, dry loamy top soils, dry stems, chewy leather, lighter baking spices than the nose, cedar and fresh red & dark florals.

Photos of; their tasting in the old Viña, two vistas from their property and the newer more modern Viña.

I think it is a bit too young. It is not singing that much as I know it can. Its not showing any roundness at this moment.

Violet pink rim , ruby core still. Lots of black currant , cassis , tobacco , touch of nutmeg. On the palate more of the dark black fruits , quite fine medium tannins , tobacco, cocoa at the end , grafite also. Quite long and balanced , acidity is refreshing and the alcohol is also in check. Good from now and over the next 2 years , though I don’t think there will be a huge amount of improvement . Going back to it a day later , it is still going strong , no oxidation , nice black fruits , tobacco tinged finish. Harmony of the Seas , deck 4 main dining

要么是适饮期还没到,要么是保存的不太好……喝上去不是很平衡,酸味突出,其他的味道没有跟上
