From high-altitude vineyards near the Andes comes this earthy, muscle-bound Merlot. It features bright cherry fruit and a hint of green pepper, but only a hint (it is ripe). The finish is mostly oak, but with drying, full tannins and a firm grip, it can handle that woodiness. A touch of barnyard renders it out of the ordinary, which is better than being dull and generic.
