A new blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Monastrell and Tempranillo, which alone makes it unique for Chile. The nose delivers a blast of menthol and the color is downright huge. Very plump and fruity, with a softness that serves it well. A real mouthful that’s not overpowering but still packs punch. ——W.E.(11/15/2005)—— 90
