Variety: Red Blend Colchagua Valley
Winery: Ventisquero /
Heavy and needing air at first, the nose evolves from being dense with an iodine note to meaty and intriguing. On the palate this is tannic and mouthfilling but fair on the palate, with cherry, cassis, tobacco and herb flavors. A note of cassis remains on the finish, which goes out with gusto.
