Floral and mineral aromas tell you this isn’t run of the mill, and seeing that it’s from the emerging Elqui Valley in northern Chile, it’s not. Aromas of violet petals and slate rise above the norm, while the palate is rich, slick and tastes of truffle, licorice, pepper and blackberry. Fairly stylish and ready to drink now. Good complexity for a value-priced wine.——M.S.(7/1/2009)—— 89
