WINEMAKER'S NOTES: "An alluring example of the Bordeaux variety that was considered long-lost until it was rediscovered in Chile a decade ago. Deep ruby color with notes of ripe red fruits, spices, tobacco, pepper and cedar. On the palate it is very approachable thanks to its ripe tannins, good balance, and long, pleasant finish."
