Chris,

Thanks. I am definitely very intrigued to try their Syrah now – how would you describe it? If you have the Pinot, I’d be curious for your impressions.

Nice write up! I am a big fan of their Syrah and actually used to work with there old winemaker Rodrigo Soto.

Looking forward to trying the Pinot and reading more of your blog.

Cheers

Weston, it certainly was big – but I was surprised at the integration after decanting. I’ve spent years trying to nail down a good word for that ‘Chilean quality’, but still can’t. It’s elusive.

hmmmm, to think I guess there is that Chilean Quality to the ones I have had, especially that one I had where the funk was way way to crazy, but yet I sipped that wine for a long time while really thinking about it.

Sounds like a big boy tho at 14.5%
