Natalie's Score: 95/100

An amazing wine; a classic for those looking for Chile's flagship labels. There’s a splash of Petit Verdot grapes in this mostly Carmenère-driven red. Deep, long and complex with layers of mouth-watering juiciness. Deep purple says it all, including both the colour and the aromas of fleshy dark plums and berries. There's cedar smoke and spices on the finish. Truly a wine for hedonists. This is one for the cellar as well, but why wait? I'd drink it with hearty meat dishes.

Carmenere food pairings: grilled steaks, osso buco.
