Viña Morande 2001 Edicion Limitada Golden Reserve Red (Loncomilla Valley)
-
$80
Aged in new American oak for 20 months, this wine has intense aromas of vanilla and toast, but that’s backed by ample blackberry, black cherry and raspberry scents. It’s a juicy, medium-weight wine, not overly rich, but packed with raspberries, dried herbs and brown sugar. Finishes long and toasty—and might be more reminiscent of some Riojas than most Chilean wines…

Viña Morande 2000 Terrarum Cabernet Sauvignon (Maipo Valley)
-
$9
Clean, fresh and welcoming, with a complex hint of bacon and spice. The mouth is full of plum, cherry and other berry notes, making for a satisfying palate. The finish is smooth and adequately long, and while it’s a touch weak at the core, it’s still a nice wine.
