This wine has never hit my palate well, always too much bell pepper.

Perhaps I should try again.

I didn't get bell pepper specifically but there was a hint of greenness that I was having a hard time identifing - the slight bite on the finish hid the greenness flavor well. The greenness was not nearly as strong as some of the other chilean cabs i have tried.

I re-read the TN and it made the wine sound bad - the wine was not bad - just not as good as the "salesman" at my LWS had insisted - he said "lafite" and "Baron" probably 20 times. Try it with food and it will be a good table wine.
