The single-vineyard Cinsault 2021 Monk comes from a rented vineyard in Guarilihue-Tiajacura on silt and iron soils and was named after jazz musician Thelonius Monk, who Pedro Parra describes as "complex and innovative." It fermented with 100% full clusters and matured in and oak vat for 11 months. The wine comes from red, tight soils, with lots of iron and small particles of quartz. It always has a deeper voice, and it's subtle and keeping the style of the Imaginador, quite Comando G (Las Umbrías, mentioned Parra), fine-boned with grainy tannins and good grip. It's floral and elegant, with some ethereal fragility. 1,712 bottles were filled in February 2022 ... More details

Beautiful reduction here with a hint of white sesame on top of the brambly fruit, full of raspberries and wild strawberries. Some bergamot and grapefruit citrus, too. Tangy and firm on the medium-bodied palate. Juicy and pristine, full of verve. The nervy, peppery, fruity finish is quite inviting. Chalky tannins in the forefront of the palate. An excellent, drinkable wine I’d return to for a second glass, and a third...
Winery
This single vineyard Cinsault comes from soils rich in silt, sand, and red granite. Native yeast fermentation with 30% whole clusters. Aging took place in 1,500-liter oak vats for just under 1 year prior to bottling. The muscular “Monk” Cinsault pays homage to jazz musician Thelonius Monk by displaying a direct, strong, and complex wine in full force.

Country: Chile

When considering the rich and fertile central valleys of Chile, where we find most of the oldest, grandest and established wineries, it is difficult to imagine a more suited landscape for vineyard cultivation and wine production. Mineral rich soils, eight months of sunshine per year, oceanic winds and clear water running down the mountainsides – it is little wonder that the imported Old World grapes do so well here. Chile is renowned world-wide for producing highly drinkable wines, packed full of fruit-forward character and enjoyed young and fresh, as well as being home to more complex wines reminiscent of many Old World varieties. Whilst the Cabernet Sauvignon is widely regarded as being Chile's 'flagship' grape varietal, equally fine produce comes from Chardonnay grapes (indeed, the Sol de Sol Chardonnays are widely agreed to be amongst the New World's finest white wines) the plummy Merlot and silky, intense Pinot Noir.
