December 2015: Quentin Sadler

Quentin Sadler presented an excellent evening of “Whats new from Chile” Sadly we only had a limited turnout, but perhaps to be expected in the week before Christmas. They missed a treat. Quentin is an excellent speaker and brought along some good Visuals as well as the wine.

The Wines:

2013 Undurraga Sibaris Leyda Sauvignon Blanc Viña Underraga, D.O. Valle de Leyda - £8.99

2013 Corte Ignacio Chardonnay Concha y Toro, D.O. Litueche, Rapel Coastal - £8.95

2008 Eclat Old Vine Blend Valdivieso, D.O. Valle de Maule - £14.00

The 3 best were widely reckoned to be
The Pueblo Pais – at £7.50 from the Wine Society (a real steal.)
The Tabali Reserve at £10.99 from Majestic, and
The Eclat Old Wine Blend at £14.00 from Winedirect.

All 3 are inky black full bodied items, so pay your money and take your choice!!
