Wine Enthusiast 91
"Rich and bold from the start, with cassis, raspberry, coffee and tobacco aromas that yield to creamy mocha upon airing. The palate is ripe, tannic and structured, with blackfruit flavors, a touch of herbs and espresso. Long and herbal on the finish, with a smooth fade."

"Vivid ruby. Cherry-cola, blueberry and vanilla on the nose, with notes of cigar box and licorice adding complexity. Deeply pitched dark fruit flavors are enlivened by a strong spicy quality and become smokier with air. Tightens up with air, with no loss of flesh and finishes with impressive breadth, length and lingering sweetness. This wine is balanced to age."~JR

"From Peralillo, a warm zone in the interior
of the Colchagua Valley, this cabernet blend is voluptuous and ample in the mouth. Sweet red fruit flavors compete with the tannins in intensity, leaving room for herbal and spice notes to lend complexity. For lamb chops."

Wine Spectator 89
"Polished, showing good density for the vintage, with a core of plum, blackberry and mulled spice backed by polished notes of roasted vanilla and licorice. Shows nice focus on the full-bodied finish. Drink now. 875 cases made"
