2009年，智利考克内斯（Cauquenes）地区遭受了可怕的地震，倒也成就了一段和地震有关的“风土”故事。这次地震在那里造成了重大的破坏，自然当地的酒厂也不能幸免。很多的橡木桶被散落异处。酿酒师巴蒂斯特屈弗利耶（Baptiste Cuvelier）拾起这些依旧幸存的酒桶，混合放入了同样尚存的葡萄酒，但结果却是产生了惊人的好酒。所有的葡萄在这里都是被公平贸易并且是有机生长。葡萄酒中柔和的单宁和清爽的果酸像是在你的舌尖偏偏起舞般跳跃，这样平衡的酒体的注定了是可以被存放在酒窖里陈年的好酒。辛辣的黑胡椒及肉桂香味的酒体更加醇厚，还夹杂着丰富的黑色和红色水果味，如黑加仑，桑椹，和树莓在一起，还有一丝烟叶和咖啡的味道。它还有一个非常有趣的薄荷味，如同一块没有巧克力的安第斯牌（Andes）薄荷巧克力。橡木中的香草味道在中期的口感得以显现。单宁相当柔美，以及很长的余味。这是一个出乎意料的好葡萄酒，同时又铭刻着那段令人伤痛的往事，这款酒的部分收益将返还给仍然在恢复中的地震灾区。只是有酒相伴味道足以鲜美。极力推荐。 标签：2006, Baptiste Cuvelier，赤霞珠，佳利酿，美娜，考克内斯，智利，Chile Maule，Cinsaut，地震，梅鹿辄，派斯，混合型红酒，红葡萄酒，酒评，酒
