"#10 Top 100 Wines of Chile 2023: A beautiful, tangy cinsault full of life. I love the white sesame reduction here with pomegranate, grapefruit and white pepper. Juicy and delicious, with a medium body and firm, chalky tannins. Long and polished. Fleshier if you compare with the more austere Newk. Watch out, this is dangerously drinkable. 160 cases of 12 bottles made."

"The pure Cinsault 2021 Miles was dedicated to Miles Davis and produced with grapes from an old vineyard in the zone of Guarilihue in Itata. In Parra's opinion, it's the most complete and balanced of the ones he vinifies, a vineyard on very decomposed granite soils that are very rocky with a little iron and sandy clay texture. It fermented in concrete with 100% full clusters and indigenous yeasts and matured in an oak vat for 11 months. It has 13% alcohol and feels a little closed and austere, subtle but with a wider palate with fine-grained minerality, harmonious and with symmetry, with chalky tannins. 1,612 bottles were filled in February 2022."
