Viña La Fortuna 2011 Culpeo Made with Organic Grapes Sauvignon Blanc (Curicó Valley)

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
Light and reserved on the nose, with a hint of green apple and minerality but that’s it. Feels citrusy and tangy, with lean, fresh flavors of lemon-lime and lettuce. Mild citric acidity keeps things lively on the finish.  — M.S.  (6/1/2012)

Viña La Fortuna 2010 Culpeo Made with Organic Grapes Chardonnay (Curicó Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
Neutral up front except for some pine and minerality. Feels grippy but highly regular, with apple cider and stalky white-fruit flavors. Resiny and mildly bitter on the finish.  — M.S.  (6/1/2012)

Viña La Fortuna 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (Lontué Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
Aromas of standard berry fruit have a cheesy accent, while the palate is on the flat side in terms of feel and flavors. With respect to flavor, expect mildly herbal berry tastes and cherry tomato. Snappy on the finish but stretched thin.  — M.S.  (12/31/2009)

Viña La Fortuna 2006 Culpeo Merlot (Curicó Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
Nice enough on the nose, with spunky berry aromas mixed with modest spice and vanilla. The palate is angular yet fresh, with tight acidity producing bright but choppy cherry and plum flavors. Cleansing but scratchy on the finish.  — M.S.  (3/1/2010)

Viña La Fortuna 2008 Chardonnay (Lontué Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
Standard apple and pear aromas are positive, but that’s really about as far as it goes. The palate is soft and easy, with bland white-fruit flavors and then a mild, pithy, pickly finish. Starts a little better than it ends.  — M.S.  (12/1/2009)

Viña La Fortuna 2008 Sauvignon Blanc (Lontué Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
White fruit and floral aromas give it a pleasant but generic nose, while the fleshy palate delivers green fruit and bitter citrus flavors. There’s not a lot of pleasantries or upside to the wine, but for straightforward citrus and apple cider it makes the grade.  — M.S.  (9/1/2009)

Viña La Fortuna 2007 Pinot Noir (Lontué Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
A very lean specimen with a sheer persona and little fruit or fanfare. Sour cherry and raspberry flavors are lean as a twig, while the back palate and finish are all citrus peel and burn. Brings hardly anything to the table.  — M.S.  (9/1/2009)
