Viña el Principal 2006 El Principal Red (Maipo Valley)
- $77
Powerful and entering its mature stage. Aromas on this Cab-Carmenère blend are typically earthy and lightly baked, with leaf, tobacco and nutmeg accents. Feels solid and ready, with rooty berry, olive, cocoa and vanilla flavors setting up a spicy, earthy finish. A fine wine if you can tolerate some classic Chilean olive and tobacco qualities.

Viña el Principal 2009 Calicanto Red (Maipo Valley)
- $19
Black cherry and cassis aromas mix with olive and leather on the bouquet. The palate has a scratchy, tight feel and mildly herbal plum, berry and olive flavors. Finishes with roasted, forward flavors and semirough tannins. 60% Cabernet and 40% Carmenère.

Viña el Principal 2007 Memorias Red (Maipo Valley)
- $36
Herbal to the max, with can’t-miss aromas of juniper, pine and foresty berry. The palate is big and syrupy in feel, with herbal flavors of olive, carob and tobacco. Sweet and leafy on the finish.
