Smooth, composed and better than 90% of Chile’s Chardonnays. This has welcoming apple, vanilla, nut and tropical fruit aromas backed by round, forceful apple, apricot and nectarine flavors. Nicely oaked and well balanced; if only all of Chile’s Chards were this well made.——M.S.(12/31/2009)—— 89

Buttercup aromas give a sense that this wine is right on the edge. And it probably is; it’s an ’06 with ripe, soft, melony flavors and lots of pineapple and mango on the finish. Big and fruity now, but it’s not going to last much longer.——M.S.(9/1/2008)—— 85
