Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A very lean specimen with a sheer persona and little fruit or fanfare. Sour cherry and raspberry flavors are lean as a twig, while the back palate and finish are all citrus peel and burn. Brings hardly anything to the table.

Viña La Fortuna Pinot Noir - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Nice enough on the nose, with spunky berry aromas mixed with modest spice and vanilla. The palate is angular yet fresh, with tight acidity producing bright but choppy cherry and plum flavors. Cleansing but scratchy on the finish.

Viña La Fortuna Merlot - 2006

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Aromas of standard berry fruit have a cheesy accent, while the palate is on the flat side in terms of feel and flavors. With respect to flavor, expect mildly herbal berry tastes and cherry tomato. Snappy on the finish but stretched thin.

Viña La Fortuna Cabernet Sauvignon - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Standard apple and pear aromas are positive, but that’s really about as far as it goes. The palate is soft and easy, with bland white-fruit flavors and then a mild, pithy, pickly finish. Starts a little better than it ends.

Viña La Fortuna Chardonnay - 2008

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
White fruit and floral aromas give it a pleasant but generic nose, while the fleshy palate delivers green fruit and bitter citrus flavors. There’s not a lot of pleasantries or upside to the wine, but for straightforward citrus and apple cider it makes the grade.
