Undurraga 2007 Altazor Red (Maipo Valley)
- $60
A big, syrupy five-grape blend that delivers the full allotment of baked, ripe berry aromas followed by a firm, tannic palate housing serious flavors of blackberry, eucalyptus, olive and mineral. Very long and layered on the finish, with acidic zest to keep it pulsing. Drink now through 2015.

Undurraga 2010 T.H. Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
One sniff receives immediate prickle and a hint of fresh bell pepper offset by citrus blossom and passion fruit. All the components of excellent Sauvignon Blanc appear in this carved, sizzling wine: tangerine, orange, grapefruit and lime flavors; freshness and physique; purity and sense of place.

Undurraga 2005 Aliwen Reserva Chardonnay (Central Valley)
- Best Buy
- $10
This new wine from a venerable Chilean producer scores points all over the map. The nose is a smooth ride of white fruits and cleanliness, while the mouth pulsates with pear, green banana and toasted walnuts. Harmonious and sturdy, with fine balance. One of the best ten-buck, buy-and-drink Chards you’ll find.

Undurraga 2008 T.H. Lo Abarca Sauvignon Blanc (San Antonio)
- Online Exclusive
- $22
This is what you want from Chile. The bouquet of green apple, lime, mineral, sea air and controlled sweetness is impressive while not being forceful. Flavors of citrus, pineapple and green herbs are live-wire, while the feel is stimulating and spritzy. With a juicy finish and tons of zest,this is a lovely, true wine that reflects its coastal San Antonio origins.

Undurraga 1999 Altazor Cabernet Sauvignon (Maipo Valley)
- Cellar Selection
- $46
The debut vintage, and already sold out, according to Undurraga. It’s inky in color, with earthy scents complemented by cassis and mint. The chewy texture is silky as well, finishing with firm tannins and juicy acids. The next vintage will be the 2001, which should be more available, as 1,000 cases were produced.

Undurraga 2005 Reserva Chardonnay (Maipo Valley)
- Best Buy
- $12
The bouquet here sports popcorn and butter, but also zesty tropical fruit and apple blossom aromas. The palate is rich but balanced, with pear and toffee flavors. Warm and woody throughout, but with such firm acidity it’s a winner.

Undurraga 2008 T.H. Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $22
Undurraga’s top Sauvignon hails from the premier terroir of Leyda. It smells clean and inviting, with an aromatic mix of talcum powder, lime, mango and scallion. The palate is very fresh and lively, with snappy citrus flavors that include grapefruit. Razor-clean on the finish.

Undurraga 2009 T.H. Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Solid, crisp and consistent with the previous vintage. Undurraga’s T.H. from Leyda is a Sauvignon Blanc made in the oceanic, cool-climate style. It’s stripped of all fat and weight; instead, it hits with tangerine, orange and a bit of green. A nice example of a streamlined, fit white wine.
