From Litueche in Ucuquer, Colchagua Valley. Late-ish pick. Now selling for CA$20 in Québec. Pale mid ruby-purple. Ripe, slightly baked blueberry and blackberry fruit with a notable roasted tone, some dried-herb notes and cocoa from oak in the background. Spicy, roasted fruit on the palate, with some smokiness. Moderate tannins and a warming finish.
