"A deep nose with ample oak is peppery and lightly herbal, with scents of clove and briary black fruits. The palate on this Syrah is dry, reserved and tannic, but fresh and healthy. Herbal spicy plum, berry and tomato flavors are drawing on the finish."

88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2013 on 01.07.2017 with 88 of 100 points.
"Lush, ripe, almost heavy aromas of blackberry are framed with graphite and oak-based coconut scents. Pinchy tannins create a narrow mouthfeel, while baked plum flavors are spicy and end with peppery notes and moderate heat."
yr. 2012 Wine Enthusiast:
89 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2012 on 01.07.2016 with 89 of 100 points.
"Ripe and earthy aromas of black cherry and blackberry are lush and dense on the nose. The palate follows suit with a full mouthfeel, but retains adequate acidity for balance. Flavors of gravel-tinged black fruit, baking spice and carob finish ripe and easy. Drink now."

"(2016) 10% new oak. Lovely sweet fruited nose, a deep and glossy wine, but has the freshness of red fruit and balsamic, slightly medicinal note that is attractive, with some herbal notes but spicy black fruits drive it. Just a little rounding and smoothing vanilla from that touch of oak, but a lean, grippy tannin and acid structure."
yr. 2010 Wine Enthusiast:
87 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2010 on 01.01.2013 with 87 of 100 points.
"Leathery berry aromas give way to oak-driven popcorn, butter and even some plastic on the bouquet. This is a vivacious wine, with herbal, gamy berry and mint flavors. On the finish, you get a resiny oak flavor along with good feel and length."
yr. 2009 Wine Enthusiast:
87 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2009 on 01.01.2011 with 87 of 100 points.
"Sweet, jammy and friendly on the nose, with a bit of herbs, olive and leather. The palate is firm and healthy, with some oaky residue along with jammy, grainy blackberry, baked plum and bitter chocolate flavors. Sweet and chewy in terms of feel, with a nicely baked overall character."
yr. 2008 Wine Enthusiast:
87 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2008 on 01.01.2010 with 87 of 100 points.
"A little soapy on the nose, with air freshener, cherry candy and soft berry aromas. The palate follows what the nose offers with richness and soft tannins along with blackberry and blueberry flavors. Not very spicy for a Syrah; it's more of a baked, toasty, generic red wine that tastes good but isn't complex or varietal in nature."
yr. 2007 Wine Enthusiast:
88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2007 on 01.01.2010 with 88 of 100 points.
"Attractive aromas of balsam wood, smoky berry and earth announce this as true Syrah, while the palate has good feel and balance along with lively flavors of berry fruit, dry oak and herbs. Fairly dense, with good integrity."
yr. 2006 Wine Enthusiast:
85 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2006 on 01.01.2008 with 85 of 100 points.
"You can literally smell the oak, right down to the wood's grain and resin. The palate is full and dense, with sweet, chewy berry fruit and lots of oak in support. Gets better with airing, but always holds onto the vanilla and cheese qualities that come straight from the barrel."
yr. 2005 Wine Enthusiast:
88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2005 on 01.01.2008 with 88 of 100 points.
"The wine is big at, with aromas of spiced gumdrops, cured meat and dark fruit. It's full on the palate, teetering on raisiny, with brazen black plum, boysenberry and burnt toast flavors. Very ripe, succulent and forward, yet not overly elegant."
yr. 2004 Wine Enthusiast:
85 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2004 on 01.01.2007 with 85 of 100 points.
"Dusty and a touch herbal; this wine struggles for total purity of flavors and aromas, but it gets it partially right, especially with its mouthfeel. Flavors of black cherry and raspberry are a little bit green and pasty, while the oak bites more than it should. Good up to a certain level, but with issues."
yr. 2002 Wine Enthusiast:
86 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2002 on 01.01.2005 with 86 of 100 points.
"Dark and tight, with sturdy plum and berry aromas along with some minty oak in support. Plump and chunky on the palate, but stand up, with a finish that runs peppery. A touch raw and oaky, but still better than most Chilean Syrah."
yr. 2001 Wine Enthusiast:
88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2001 on 01.01.2004 with 88 of 100 points.
"Ripe, rich and rubbery, and seemingly just hitting its stride. The nose offers earth, tar and lots of magnetic black fruit. Flavors of plum, blackberry and sugar beet are sweet yet not candied, while the finish deals espresso, mocha and wood dust. A very good Chilean Syrah, but one that should be judged among its Chilean brethren."
yr. 2000 Wine Enthusiast:
84 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 2000 on 01.01.2002 with 84 of 100 points.
"The wine features outsized jammy flavors of various berries, but it's not very nuanced. It's a sweet, gooey wine, although it's technically dry. Superripeness has made this wine excessively fruity."
yr. 1999 Wine Enthusiast:
88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Arboleda Syrah" from the vintage 1999 on 01.01.2001 with 88 of 100 points.
"Full, earthy notes and red berry fruit with leathery accents characterize this medium-weight, well-built wine. The cassis-tobacco profile pleases, there's a grainy texture and the big back end shows firm, full tannins, earth and black plum notes. Should improve over the next two years."
