Wine Enthusiast: 90 Points
To make this wine, grapes are sourced from vineyards in Millahue, Cachapoal Valley. Aged in barrels for 24 months, this blend has a nose of cherry, raspberry and strawberry followed by cinnamon. Tannins have enough grip to hold fruit flavors accented by vanilla, light notes of black pepper and bell pepper.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
The textbook 2019 Crianza was produced with Tempranillo from Rioja Alta, trying to showcase the freshness from their La Grajera vineyard with 13% alcohol and a pH of 3.66. It's medium-bodied, with fine, polished tannins and has a gentle mouthfeel with good balance and freshness. It fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured in used oak barrels for one year.
