Wine Critic Reviews

Patricio Tapia - Descorchados (92): This syrah is a synopsis of Polkura’s vineyards in Marchigüe, in the western Colchagua Valley. Half of the 25 hectares that the winery has planted in the zone are syrah, and this wine displays its powerful, juicy, opulent character, reactive tannins, and firm acidity that—especially in this cool vintage—acts as a backbone. For lamb.
