Chuck’s Take
Here you have a nice light bodied dry red that’s made without oak barrels to mix it up a little. It’s a blend of Corvina and Merlot grape varietals. Fresco in Italian means fresh and this wine really tastes fresh! Here’s why:
The grapes are harvested at the coolest time of the day and immediately pressed and made into wine. It’s fermented only with the natural yeasts found on the grape skins, decanted and then bottled unfiltered (it’s quite clear and had no sediment).

Sean’s Take
Pinot Noir is a great alternative to bigger bold wines that can steal the show. I got the cherry flavours I was expecting and overall enjoyed this Pinot. A bit of ripe fruit or jam was missing which cost it the 4th star.

I really liked another Pinot from Cono Sur which I gave 4/5 stars and costs a couple of dollars less.

Sean’s Take
Another lush and juicy wine at a great price point. Chile tends to produce wines with really nice fruit flavours and the perfect level of sweetness. There is a really nice earthy thing happening on the finish that probably from the Carmenere. I’d buy it again and would gift this wine.
