This has tasty, ripe raspberry and cherry fruit, backed by plenty of sweet vanilla-scented toast and red licorice. Features a lightly firm finish from the toast, but this is solid enough. Drink now. 10,000 cases made.??–JM??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Rapel / Colchagua Valley Select to Add

Smoke, pencil lead, black cherry; Structured, balanced, savory, 2-3 years aging potential.

The 2006 Malbec Tribute reveals black cherry and blackberry aromas and flavors. It has excellent depth and concentration with the potential for 1-2 years of evolution. Drink it over the next 5-6 years. Caliterra’s less expensive Reserva lineup did not move me but the Tribute portfolio was excellent. Each of the wines spent 14 months in French and American oak.Importer: A.V. Brands, Inc., Columbia, MD; tel. (410) 884-9463; www.caliterra.cl
