  This is Veramonte's top red. But frankly, it's green, herbal and difficult to enjoy. The nose offers plenty of green olive, while the heart of the wine is herbal and only gift-wrapped with coatings of blackberry and currant.

  The nose of this Augustin Huneeus-made wine shows soil, wood and a algae-greenness; the palate, blackberry and oak. Medium-bodied; finishes with dry tannins. 60% Carmenère, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot.

  Red-berry fruit with a heavy dose of herb and bell pepper marks this red blend. The mouthfeel is smooth, but the acidity is high and the wine finishes slightly tart, with a green note. Another victim of this tough year. (We'll look forward to the 1999.)
