Vinegar and horseradish mar the plum notes on the nose, while the palate is exceedingly lean and snappy. Raspberry flavors fade as fast they arrive, and overall it’s devoid of richness.

Interesting on the nose, where flower petal, cola and grape extract blend nicely. But that quality doesn’t really make it to the palate, where the flavor profile is narrow. Grabby and scouring in terms of feel, but the aromas are really good. Too bad it’s so limited to the smell.

A touch waxy and oily, with flower blossom and butterscotch scents but no overt, identifiable fruit. Lively and acidic, a trait of the chilly, emerging southern Bío Bío area. Finishes spry but short on flavor. Imported by Corkscrew Imports.

Sort of sweet, with aromas of jelly beans and Easter candies. That sweetness carries to the palate, where apple and lime accents join the fray. Finishes short and kind of empty. Imported by Corkscrew Imports.

Murky and damp smelling, with buttery strawberry flavors. Peppery and dry, with a raw, thin mouthfeel. Acceptable at a base level.

Features some ripe and heavy aromas, with a touch of barnyard and rubber thrown in. More rustic than refined, but ultimately good, with cherry and raspberry flavors. Dry and smoky on the finish, with tannin offsetting any fatness. Imported by Corkscrew Imports.

Strikes a pleasing opening chord with its pear and vanilla aromas along with a splinter of oak. The palate is a bit toasty, with smooth apple and pineapple flavors. Becomes more lemony as it opens, with woody, resiny notes peeking through. Imported by Corkscrew Imports.

Takes off a bit dirty, with a lot of earth and green tobacco. Finds its stride later on, as it displays red fruit but also some clamping tannins. Sort of herbal in character as it struggles for adequate ripeness. Imported by Corkscrew Imports.

Light-bodied and tight, with bramble, raspberry and burnt, reedy notes. Shows a snappiness and red cherry on the palate, with tight, crisp acidity. A touch hard on the back end. Imported by Corkscrew Imports.

A bit sharp and raw from the beginning, and the palate features a jolt of bracing acids that turn the raspberry and plum flavors sharp. Far more raw than pulpy, so it’s Merlot on the thin side. Which makes sense given that it comes from the very cool, southern Bío Bío Valley. Imported by Corkscrew Imports.
