Wine & Spirits, 92 Points
"The steep granite hills of Guarilihue look more like Piedmont, Italy than what you might think of as Chile. Fourteen miles from the coast, this area grows fresh cinsault that delivers its earthiness with a smile. This is silken and light, with a gentle touch of red fruit."
Wine Advocate, 90 Points
"The 2019 Gallardía del Itata Cinsault has low alcohol, a full degree less than the rosé. They use the grapes from the top of the slope for this red, which has the austere presence of the granite soils in the texture. It has notes of cherries and some herbs and is harmonious and serious, with a long-lasting finish."
Winemaker Notes:
"Bright ruby color with fresh aromas of red and dark cherries, with notes of violets. The palate is fresh with ripe red berries, crisp acidity, soft tannins and lingering finish."
Alcohol: 12.5%
Dry farmed.
