Finely balanced and complex palate with great concentration." 95 pts Wine and Spirits International (UK) Magazine, Supplement Chile 2005 "Deep ruby. Assertive, pungent aromas of cherry, cassis, bitter chocolate and espresso, with a complicating note of mint. Firm in structure but with a very sweet cherry flavor that expands with air. Quite juicy and vibrant, with fine, dusty tannins and impressive concentration. Finishes with notes of mocha and licorice." 91 pts Josh Reynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar "The 2003 Sideral, a blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot. 4% Syrah, and 2% Sangiovese, is purple-colored with aromas of toasty black currants, cedar, and spice box. This is followed by a smoothly textured wine with ripe red and black fruits, spicy flavors, and soft tannins. The wine is forward enough to be enjoyed now but will evolve for several years." 91 pts Jay Miller, Wine Advocate download order form Europa Cellars Winter Sale Our winter sale continues while stocks last.
