Wine tasting 6
I would not buy this wine if I had 70SEK to spend, just because there's nothing special about it. There's a lot more available in this price range that's better quality. Have a look at other wines we've tasted in the 70 - 80SEK price range. If you want another wine from this producer, try the Cabernet Sauvignon, much better, and scored 3 1/2 stars during the 4th wine tasting.
Panel's rating: 2,65 out of 5
Country: Chilé
Grape: 100% Merlot
Price: 70SEK
Colour: Dark, blue red colour.
Nose: Fruity aroma with barrel character, hints of plums, vanilla, grass and liquorice. Fruit-forward with distinct blackberry and plum notes, and delicate traces of vanilla and toast. Very well-integrated wood.
Taste: Very fruity wine with barrel character, hints of plums, liquorice and vanilla. Smooth, good body. Balanced, ripe tannins and a delicious long finish.

One of the few 3 star [max] wines in the 2010 catalogue from Harold Hamersma. But true, we're talking about taste...
They do make some great wines.
