Rich cedar-black savoury goodness with anise and blackberry. Smooth and full-bodied. Extremely satisfying. Perfect for book clubs when you’re tackling a dark story.

Reviews and Ratings

Dan Trcka Wine Blogger rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

The 2009 Concha Y Toro Maycas Del Limari Reserva Syrah is medium to full bodied, with nicely fruity aromas of strawberry yogurt, prune and chocolate. Tannins are subtle to refined (decant for 30 min) and the finish is medium to long. This wine is still quite young, but should evolve quite nicely. Drink 2013 - 2016 and beyond. My impression: NICE, 89.5 pts - I would highly recommend this wine to anyone who is able to age it and this is why: it is quite nice already, its complexity will only amplify, and the price point is quite frankly unbeatable (in Ontario). This wine reminds me of French Syrah - most recently the 2007 Domaine Belle Les Pierrelles Crozes Hermitage released on February 8th LCBO#41921 for $23. Tasted March/11.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
