Deep rich concentrated layers and nose of dark brambly berries, reminiscent of a super tuscan or bordeaux. Very nice bottle of wine. Well balanced and very tasty! Indeed a fantastic buy for the price at Trader Joes!

I found this at Safeway for $1.99 on sale and frankly it is actually pretty good for that price.

Is there someone who can write a description for this varietal similar to the one for Pinot Noir? I loved reading that one, and would love to read about many different grapes. Please point me in the write direction if I am looking in the wrong place.

A very leathery, grapey nose with some notes of cough syrup. Its a more restrained wine than I'm used to from Chile, there's a lot of fruit on the finish, but it's slow to start. Still very young and tight, with a green medicinal finish. Needs time"
I'd not had a cab from this area of Chile, although I've had plenty from Chile in general. Way too young to form the best impression, there was a lot of tight tannins, but it's quite an over ripe wine too - the licorice and cough syrup came through. We'll see if anyone had a better experience.
From Mike Pobega:
Greetings! Lets have some fun. I propose that the weekend of March 6th, 7th, and 8th be our first Virtual Tasting Weekend, themed 'The Cabernets of Chile'.
The plan is simple: just choose a cabernet from the chosen region, open it & note on it here at Snooth and we can discusss it beyond that.
Lets start with Cabernets of Chile, a region I am not as familiar with myself.
We will go around the world from here.....
