Confin 2004 Premium Reserve Red (Rapel Valley)
- $20
Full, round, stocky and ripe, with an aromatic foundation of tobacco, black fruit and rubber. The three grapes that comprise this wine are Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère and Merlot, and together they form a full-bodied yet juicy triumverate that culminates with chocolate, pepper and lush tannins.

Confin 2004 Winemaker Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Rapel Valley)
- $14
Plum, blackberry and other dark fruits coat the smooth bouquet. The palate is fairly intense, with saturated plum and berry flavors. Very solid and tight, with ripe tannins and a chewy feel. Good Cabernet that will please most.

Confin 2004 Winemaker Reserve Merlot (Rapel Valley)
- $14
More full and powerful than the regular Merlot, with berry compote, lemon peel and toast on the nose. Fairly full in body, while the red-fruit flavors are solid and familiar. Has good structure and a linear finish. Good in its class.

Confin 2005 Carmenère (Rapel Valley)
- $12
Ripe and ready, although it is a little bit herbal. It runs sweet in the mouth, with berry flavors blended with chocolate. Tannic power builds on the palate, and it finishes firm but bearable.

Confin 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon (Rapel Valley)
- $11
Firm, a touch rubbery, and quite full-bodied, with earthy aromas of coffee and black fruits. Cassis and berry are the primary flavors, while the saturated palate is chewy and dense. Runs a touch toward sweet and syrupy, but holds the line.

Confin 2005 Chardonnay (Rapel Valley)
- $11
Citrus and mineral on the proportioned nose is a solid opening. Peach and green apple flavors are solid, while the feel is zesty if a bit narrow and acidic. Finishes with oomph and clarity.

Confin 2004 Merlot (Rapel Valley)
- $11
Sulfuric at first, and later it’s strawberry and tomato that control the nose. In the mouth, it’s sweet and a bit syrupy, with generic black fruit leading the way. Finishes with milk chocolate and a hint of burnt toast and grass.
