2022 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2024

Currants, red plums and green olives follow through to a medium-bodied palate with lightly chewy tannins and a crunchy, medium-length finish. Not complex, but quite well-balanced. Drink now.

About James Suckling

91 / 100 Patricio Tapia - Descorchados

2022 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2024

About 3,000,000 bottles of this wine were made from vines averaging 30 years in age in Peralillo, in the Colchagua Valley. It’s a delight of juicy and refreshing red fruit. It’s lively and vibrant, with deliciously firm, fine tannins and fruity flavors mingled with herbal notes. Impressive value for money here, not only for the price, but also considering the volume of wine Los Vascos has produced for the market.

2021 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2023

Lots of red fruit here with redcurrants, cherries and currant leaves. Juicy, medium-bodied palate with fresh acidity and a strawberry-driven finish. Pristine, simple and very drinkable. Nice fruit and nothing is overdone. Oak-free. Drink now.

2021 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2023

This cabernet sauvignon offers excellent value for money, but not only that—it also gives a clear and honest take on the variety when grown in a sunny climate like that of Colchagua. The ripe red fruits are the star of the show here, although the sensation of firm and youthful tannins is felt on the palate from the start. A cabernet full of energy, the kind you need for barbecued ribs.

2020 Vintage Tasted: Nov 2022

The nose of this austere red displays bell pepper and black fruit aromas. It's full-bodied and has mild fruit flavors followed by grass alongside medium acidity. Jesica Vargas

2018 Vintage Tasted: Mar 2022

Part of the Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) portfolio, Los Vascos was founded in the late 1980s and now owns one of the largest vineyards in the Colchagua Valley. It produces a wide range of red wines at various price points. Among its Cabernets, this Reserva is an excellent value. It opens with ripe plum and spice with a definite note of mint and crushed herbs. Medium bodied, it has concentrated flavors of dark plums, dried herbs and some tobacco leaf. Fairly sturdy tannins hold it together and suggest this can be enjoyed now and over the next 3 to 5 years. (Norm Roby)

2019 Vintage Tasted: May 2021

Raspberry, plum and cassis aromas are ripe but not overdone, while this Cabernet feels basic and fluffy on the palate. Medicinal cherry and plum flavors are backed by a finish with sticky tannins and hints of oxidation. Drink now. Michael Schachner

2019 Vintage Tasted: Mar 2021

From the house of Lafite-Rothschild, unmistakably Chile: pure black currant, underpinned with tobacco and fine wood savouriness, some nougat and ripe tannins, a fresh red wine with class.

90 / 100 Revista Adega

2017 Vintage Tasted: Jun 2020

Tinto elaborado exclusivamente a partir de Cabernet Sauvignon, sem passagem por madeira. Cheio de frutas vermelhas seguidas de notas florais e de ervas frescas, exala tipicidade tanto no nariz quanto na boca. Direto e gostoso de beber, tem ótima acidez, taninos de grãos finos e final agradável, com toques de cassis e de ameixas. Álcool 14%.

2018 Vintage Tasted: May 2020

Topped with the scent of tire rubber, this smells of mixed berry fruits. A full, slightly tartaric-feeling palate offers blackberry, dark plum and grapy flavors prior to a big but lazy finish. For a mass-produced Cabernet, this is honest and good. Michael Schachner

2018 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2020

Rich, spicy aromas with a core of red plums, as well as a gently minty edge. The palate has round, succulent fruit flavors with a supple, fresh and juicy finish. Like the acidity here. Drink or hold.

2018 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2020

With excellent value for money, this cabernet sauvignon has very prominent fresh and vibrant red fruit. The texture is tense and made of sharp, juicy tannins, and the acidity helps underscore all that freshness. A very good simple and direct cabernet.

2017 Vintage Tasted: Dec 2019

Kräftiges Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, breitere Randaufhellung. Nuancen von Unterholz und reifen Pflaumen, ein Hauch von schwarzen Beereen und Tabak, vegetale Noten. Mittlere Komplexität, rotbeerige Nuancen, präsente Tannine, kirschiger Touch im Abgang, etwas Karamell im Nachhall, bietet unkompliziertes Trinkvergnügen.

85 / 100 Wine Enthusiast

2017 Vintage Tasted: Jul 2019

Tomato, green herb and chemical oak aromas need time to resolve, and they do. A fair but basic palate is slightly gummy in feel, with tomato-like acidity cutting a path for chocolaty berry flavors. On the finish, this is slightly candied, with a smear of lasting oak. Michael Schachner

About Wine Enthusiast

88 / 100 Gismondi on Wine

2016 Vintage Tasted: May 2019

In 2016 the start was early and warm, followed by a warm summer. Temperatures finally drop at harvest, but persistent rains made strategic picking necessary. Look for a medium-weight cab with the kind of elegance you would expect from the house of Lafite. The palate is more savoury red fruit than black, with a spicy mid-palate and a dusting of wild herbs (boldo). Best with grilled meats. (Anthony Gismondi).

2016 Vintage Tasted: Oct 2018

Aromas of celery and green beans mix with raspberry in this wine. A tight palate offers no depth or give. It tastes underripe and fails to improve on the finish. Michael Schachner

2014 Vintage Tasted: Jul 2017

Aromas of cherry and currant are a bit flat. On the palate, this is perfectly good but common. Blackberry, plum and a dusting of chocolate are the key flavors, while this runs long and loamy on the finish.

Los Vascos Cabernet Sauvignon, Colchagua Valley, Chile

Fruity (black currant, grape) with little oaked flavour, off-dry, low tannin and acidity, high in alcohol, acceptable for me.

Amazing rich aromas matching the mocha and dark fruit flavors. The acidity was finishing higher than expected and needs to be paired up with fatty food.

14%. Leafy, sharp and simple nose. Lots of dried-tomato-like aromas, superfluous, with a cocoa hint. Linear and also rather lean and alcoholic. Commercial, correct but not worth looking at. (Zekun Shuai) Rating: 84/100 or 15/20 2018-2020 03/2018
