Sort By:

Michel Laroche/Jorge Coderch 2002 Colina Negra Cabernet Sauvignon (San Rafael)

Price $15

Fairly rich, chewy and structured, this is a sturdy, good-value red from an area 250 miles south of Santiago. Blackberry and cassis flavors are accented by vanilla and tobacco. Has some firm tannins on the finish, but they’re ripe, not harsh or green. — W.E. (2/1/2004)

Michel Laroche/Jorge Coderch 2002 Rio Azul Chardonnay (Casablanca Valley)

Price $13

A dramatic contrast to Laroche’s French Chardonnays, this one is loaded with tropical fruit and honey, dressed up with coconut oil and vanilla. It’s unabashedly New World, yet finishes with firm, lime-like acidity. — W.E. (2/1/2004)

points

Michel Laroche/Jorge Coderch 2002 Piedra Feliz Pinot Noir (Casablanca Valley)

The first crop off young vines and not available yet in the U.S., Laroche’s Chilean Pinot shows potential in its complex, slightly vegetal aromas but lacks stuffing and flavor intensity. — W.E. (2/1/2004)
