Viña el Aromo 2001 Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Maule Valley)
- Best Buy
- $10
Nice and open-knit, with touches of coffee, eucalyptus and earth on the nose, and lots of textbook cassis, cherry and raspberry on the palate. Powerful and flavorful, with a slight herbal streak through the center.

Viña el Aromo 2009 Private Reserve Chardonnay (Maule Valley)
- $13
Aromas of lemon, buttercup and mild oak support core baked apple and vanilla flavors. The wine offers good mouthfeel and overall balance, while the finish is lightly woody, long and honest. For Chile this is a tasty, well-made and balanced Chardonnay.

Viña el Aromo 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (Maule Valley)
- Best Buy
- $9
This is slightly rubbery smelling, but overall the cassis and black cherry aromas more than do the job. It feels healthy, with a shock of core acids propelling black cherry, currant, herb and spice flavors. Slightly herbal on the finish, but overall this is very good stuff for under $10.

- Online Exclusive
- $19
Fiery cherry/berry aromas mix with leather, herbal scents and mocha. The palate is angular and mildly sharp, with zesty red fruit, pepper and herbal flavors. A driving, acid-propelled blend of Cabernet Sauvignon along with Carmenère and Petit Verdot.

Viña el Aromo 2009 Private Reserve Carmenère (Maule Valley)
- $13
A good, basic table wine with spice, berry syrup, flower notes and char on the nose. The palate is a bit sharp and tangy, but the herbal berry and pepper flavors are pleasing. Shows a clean outlook and a dry coffee-tinged finish.

Viña el Aromo 2008 Winemaker's Selection Cabernet-Syrah (Maule Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $16
Starts out smoky and savory, with aromas of jerky and baked black fruits. The palate is fairly juicy and lively, with a good feel and then flavors of cherry and roasted plum. Tastes a bit roasted as well on the finish despite some lingering juicy acidity and snap.

Viña el Aromo 2010 Carmenère (Maule Valley)

Aromas of black fruits are blended with pine needles and herbs. Lively in feel, this has flavors of berry, herb and spice. It narrows on the finish, where a mild bitterness and some warmth come into play.

Viña el Aromo 2008 Barrel Selection Chardonnay (Maule Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $19
Big, oaky and toasty on the nose, and then zesty and pithy in the mouth, with citrus, tangerine, lemon and not much else. Call it a one-trick pony and get ready for citrusy flavors and little variation on that theme. The good thing is, for a Maule Chard it plays its hand right.
