A sweeter, richer, more confected wine, with aromas of buttered toast, butterscotch and apricots. The body is full but not what you’d call flabby; there’s adequate acidity to cut the chunkiness. Flavors of apple, melon and mango are sweet, and there’s some toast and then a mealy quality to the finish. Heavy and sugary but not a bad wine if you get at it now, before it fades to corny flatness.——M.S.(9/1/2009)—— 84

Soft and supple aromas of baked peach and squash register sort of mushy, while the palate is plump and sweet, with cantaloupe the overriding flavor. This is a heavy, grabby wine that won’t last too long, so get at it soon.——M.S.(5/1/2007)—— 83

Yellow in color, and rather oaky. Spice and vanilla are the lead aromas and flavors, with peach, melon and toast in the background. On the finish, the wood really rises up, creating cured ham and smoke aftertastes. Unusual for Chile. Imported by WTWM Imports. ——M.S.(11/1/2005)—— 84
