Veramonte Reserve La Gloria Casablanca Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2015
A phenomenal buy! The caliber of pinot noir coming out of Chile is phenomenal and the new Ritual is one of the best that also happens to sell for a song. A fantastic buy to load up on by the case. Ritual is the realization of a dream for Agustin Huneeus, proprietor of Quintessa in Napa Valley, to produce world-class Pinot Noir in Casablanca Valley. Teaming up with legendary winemaker Paul Hobbs, this all-star team is applying the same time-honored viticulture and winemaking methods as those used in Burgundy, to produce Pinot Noir of superior quality, structure and elegance. Whyt his wine isn't 2-3 times more expensive is a mystery but one we're going to take advantage of while it lasts! 94 Points James Suckling: "A dense and wonderfully long and silky pinot with strawberry, light hazelnut, and hints of lemon peel. Full body, yet lively and wired. This gives competition to Sea Smoke pinot but at half to one-third the price. Drink now."

2015 Vintage almost quince , hay, lees contact here seems like almost a sulfide character but in the mouth medium bodied seems like barrel aged ( but not a lot of oak so maybe neutral barrels ) nice in the mouth ( nice acidity)

The wine has a fresh, grassy nose with citrus notes of grapefruit and a sense of wet rocks. On the palate, great acidity jumps right out at me, very fresh and bracing. Grapefruit, orange peel and lemon flavors get attention first, but the minerals get out front quickly. A nice, long finish is sorely missed when it finally goes away.

16/20 (90/100) Сделанный в стиле Пуйи Фюме, минеральный, маслянистый, с крыжовником, чуть редуктивный, полное тело, айва, крыжовник, зеленое яблоко. Интенсивно, симпатично, с очень хорошей кислотностью. #dwchile #veramonte #chile #sauvignonblanc #pts90

Very drinkable, not too sweet, with enough dynamic flavor to get through a whole bottle. Generally not a white wine person but thoroughly enjoyed this.

I’m not the biggest fan of 70 on Blanc because typically I get way too much acid and an almost ammonia flavor. This mild version was a lot more approachable. Good crisp fruit and yes the mouthwatering acid but none of the more malodorous notes you get from this grape. .

This wine was a treat. Complex nose for me. Floral, citrus fruit and some grassy notesl. A round mouthfeel with medium plus acidity with some slight minerality on the finish.
