"Los Chacayes tends to deliver wines with tremendous tannic potency, and its rocky soils and lower fertility have a lot to do with that. And obviously, the effect is multiplied when it comes to a variety with pronounced tannic genes, such as petit verdot, a grape that is usually used in blends, although in Mendoza it often stands as a varietal. This is a wine with herbal and balsamic notes, and of course, with those brutal tannins made for lamb tartare. One of those reds that shout personality—and a savage personality at that." - 93/100, Patricio Tapia - Descorchados
