點擊次數：9302

Earthy and dry on the bouquet, but there’s an appealing subtlety to the nose that works. The palate is snappy and edgy, with juicy, lightly herbal raspberry flavors. Finishes on the tight and light side, with a touch of green. Good wine but could use a boost of ripeness. ——M.S.(6/1/2011)—— 87

Good Cab, maybe a touch herbal and light, but very solid. Early aromas of cola, leather and blackberry show some herbal, green notes. But the tomato leaf character is not dominant or unappealing, thus in the end this displays classic Chilean Cabernet qualities on a light, agile frame. Drink now.——M.S.(9/1/2008)—— 87

Cedary and slightly herbal, but backed by ample cassis fruit, Botalcura’s top Cabernet boasts a silky-smooth texture and nicely balanced acidity—its main drawback is its limited length on the finish.——W.E.(10/1/2006)—— 86

Almost Port-like on the bouquet, with loud, saucy, sweet aromas that seem to weigh a ton, assuming aromas can be weighed. The palate is surprisingly lean, however, with thin raspberry fruit leading toward cranberry and pepper on the finish. A confusing wine that doesn’t make sense as a whole.——M.S.(2/1/2005)—— 84
