Simply put - a delicious wine. Smokey and full - a mouth full of flavor. If I could eat it I would - it was that good.

My wife and I sat down to have this wine with a steak salad and had no real expectation and both of us came to the same conclusion, wow - that's really nice. I'll leave the more technical reviews to others, but it was really quite enjoyable.

I was a little skeptical about purchasing this wine. However, I have been very pleased with this wine and its flavor and smoothness. For the price, it stands up very well against other much more expensive wine that I have purchased. I would whole-heartedly recommend it.

Very nice red blend, great for the money-the carmenere adds a smokey boldness to the usual Bordeaux varietals.

I would buy this wine again
What a lovely wine this is. Every time is a pleasant surprise. It is one of my new favorite reds. The bite is smooth and complimentary to most foods. The salt of prosciutto, olives, fondue with cornichons- all examples of how well this wine brings out the flavors of great foods.

Fine and spicy with some lightly smoky flavors and smells. Drinks well especially if you chill it a bit rather than drinking at room temperature.

A Customer - San Francisco, CA
I did not like this Cab. It was very smooth, but had a strange liquid smoke flavor. It was drinkable and I appreciate that it is different, but it wasn't to my taste.
A Customer - las vegas
great wine five star good value from chile
A Customer - San Diego, CA
Tried this for the first time the other day. Liked it well enough to order another 6 bottles. It has a fair amount of tannin (as a Bordeaux-style blend should) but also lots of nice, ripe fruit. Very good wine for under $20.
A Customer - Natick, MA
This wine stands apart from all other "Bordeaux" style wines from Chile. The structure of the wine shows a fine deep cherry color, an all-enveloping bouquet of chocolate, apricots and oak, and legs that allow for drinking now, but invite you to keep a few cases hidden for 10 years for absolute enjoyment. This is an incredible value for a powerful, velvety, forward true bordeaux easily competing with a Moulis-en Medoc wine such as Chasse Spleen or some of the finer St. Estephes.
A Customer - Boston, MA
Another supendous value from Chile!
A Customer - Chicago, IL
Love it - try with grilled ribey and enjoy!
A Customer - Portland, OR

A Customer - Naples, FL
My new go to summer BBQ wine. I buy it by the case.
A Customer - Seattle, WA
Serious value here. Wine.com has a great price on this one.
A Customer - Boston, MA
Excellent Bordeaux style blend, but without the price tag of Bordeaux.
A Customer - California
Incredible value. Goes great with steak.
A Customer - Boston, MA
Outstanding! My new favorite from Chile.
A Customer - New York
Never fails to impress - I've turned on a lot of my friends to this wine.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine
