Chilean Pinot Noir

[cnspriggs]

I was wondering if anyone has been lucky enough to travel to chile lately and how the Pinot Noirs are tasting? We get the grand total of 1 (cono sur) where I am so really don't get to see what they are like.

Cheers!

Last time I looked in our local BC liqour store (Thurlow and Alberni) I found these Chilean Pinots as well:

Casa del Bosque 2001 $22.99 and Valdivieso Reserve Pinot Noir for $22.50

Cheers,

i've had both [Cono Sur, Valdivieso] and must say the Valdivieso [12 euro where i am] is much better. pinot noir....hmm...a noble grape...

I have tastrd and enjoyed several Chilean Pinot from: Concha Y Toro, Castillo de Mollina Reserva and Montes.

Montes rules and is very well priced.

Some others like the Undurraga - I did not enjoy [wrong use of oak namely]
