It's from Chile but rather from Colchuaga Valley... Nice wine! Great with steak. Rich color, good nose, nicely balanced. I drank it after choking down a glass of 2004 Marquee Pinot Noir & was much relieved to have a decent glass of wine in my hand. I didn't decant or let it develop long enough. Might be better off in the cellar for a year or 2.

Agreed, it could probably use a year or two. Showed potential but was rather harsh at this point.

Slightly strong nose, a very good wine though for the price, good tannins, nice finish. I didn't decant it, probably should have. If aged a couple years, definitely has the potential to be an excellent wine.
