With French Rhones having taken center stage alongside its Bordeaux and Burgundy brethren, we’re fortunate in Tucson to have a nice supply of the varietals from entry level to the collectible.  From the intense and highly floral Viognier to the stellar Marsanne/Roussanne blends with their haunting green tea, almond and peach pit scents, the whites, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have not been a big Merlot fan over the last several years, probably because so many tasted the same to me and the pricing was a bit overdone.  Then recently, I enjoyed a couple of Italian Merlots that reacquainted me with how rich and multi-dimensional the varietal can be.  With that in mind, I [...]]]></description>

This is perhaps the top Chilean red blend produced over the last several years for this high quality winery, produced from Carmenere, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.  Weaving a blockbuster teaming dark fruits with earthy notes, this wine has the body and structure to cellar next 6-8 [...]]]></description>
