Somewhat earthy and rubbery at first, with baked berry, cassis and mild herbal aromas settling in afterwards. The palate is juicy and tight, albeit a bit tannic and hard-hitting. Tastes sweet, warm and roasted, with blackberry fruit and vanilla. ——M.S.(12/1/2011)—— 86

Clean, basic red fruit aromas come with no interference, while the palate is direct and snappy, with true Cab flavors of raspberry and cassis. Clean as a whistle, with cherry essence and chocolate on the finish. Good but regular in its execution.——M.S.(12/31/2009)—— 86

Smooth, with a beam of currant and briar flavors that stretches out on the finish to show more toast and herb notes. Drink now. 2,800 cases made.??–JM??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Rapel / Colchagua Valley Select to Add

With hickory, coal and spice to the dark nose, this ranks as a masculine Cab with nary a flaw. The palate is chunky and ripe, with sweet dark-fruit flavors. And the finish is spicy and full, with meaty but suave tannins. A high-water mark for the La Playa label. Imported by Cabernet Corporation.——M.S.(11/1/2005)—— 88
