This has plum, berry and toast notes but is decidedly herbal for a Syrah, with that side emerging more on the trim finish. Good, but overall, it lacks oomph. Drink now. 1,680 cases imported.??–JM??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Rapel / Colchagua Valley Select to Add

Nice medium-weight Syrah, with plum and blackberry flavors and a touch of game. Smoky, fleshy finish. Ideal for winter fare. Drink now through 2003.??–JM??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Rapel / Colchagua Valley Select to Add

Chewy in texture, with black cherry and mineral, finishing with a coffee note. A bit rustic in the end, but will get by with food. Drink now. 1,000 cases made.??–JM??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Rapel / Colchagua Valley Select to Add

There’s something earthy, sharp, and green in the nose, and airing doesn’t bring out hidden fruit. Sharp and thin. The spicy midpalate contains a trace of berry-cherry fruit, and then it turns dusty and tannic on the finish. Might soften with a year or so of cellaring. —S.H. ——S.H.(2/1/2003)—— 83
