- mrdutton - 05-22-2002 A product of Chile (Colchagua), produced by two brothers. They are Eric and Alex Bartholomaus. Alcohol is 13.7%. This is a blend and the cost was $8.99 per (without case discount). Cabernet Sauvignon (50%), Syrah (40%) and Merlot (10%). Black Cherry, Chocolate and vanilla on the nose. Same fruit and chocolate on the palate with hints of earthiness and spice. Somewhat of a tannic and spicy/peppery finish that just lasts and lasts...... Went very nicely with a simple meal of meatloaf (with garlic & onions), roast potatoes and fresh steamed peas. The price is right, the taste is good. I think I'll drink a few more of these (have to buy them first)! I have not visited yet but they have a website: www.bigtattoored.com Don't bother with the website, it is still under construction. However, if you get a chance, try a bottle of this delightful blend. [This message has been edited by mrdutton (edited 05-22-2002).] |
