  • Score: 93 Vintage 2017 Wine Enthusiast A tightly built nose deals pointy aromas of tobacco, green herbs, eucalyptus and black fruits, all common scents for Chile's best red wines. What makes this different than most is that it's a blend of Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot, a marriage rarely seen. Racy acidity and gripping tannins give this all the structure it needs, while spicy flavors of herb, blackberry and chocolaty oak turn ever so slightly more green on a powerful finish. Drink through 2026. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 91 Vintage 2016 Wine Advocate The unusual 2016 Ígneo is a blend of 55% Petite Sirah and 45% Petit Verdot from Curicó and Cachapoal, respectively. It's a powerful and concentrated combination with generous oak that I find quite tannic despite having been in bottle for a couple of years. It needs time and/or powerful food. 2,010 bottles produced. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
