Meaty and staunch on the nose, with a slight soupy quality to go with strawberry and raspberry aromas. The palate is thick and sturdy, with earthy, old-school flavors of berry fruits, mineral and dry earth. Finishes slightly baked and sweet. Another good old-vines (40 years) Carignan from Maule. ——M.S.(6/1/2011)—— 88
