what does 2nd bottling mean?
i might have used the wrong term...2nd label, maybe? basically, it's not the flagship wine. they might source grapes from elsewhere, and/or leave the best grapes for the premium wine. that said, you still get the skill of the winemaker, and their name is on it, so it's generally a good bet.

Picked up a couple of Chiliean white wines Sat and both sucked bad.
Were they ok but you didn't like the style or were they "bad" as in corked or something? If you tell us what you like or don't we can try to point you in the right direction.

I was reading how some Chileans aren't what they are labeled as. It was mostly Sauvingon Vert labeled as Sauvingon Blanc. We tried a SB from Chile over the holidays & it was nice. Pretty sure it was SB. It was very herbacious & floral but didnt really have that cat piss smell, so who knows.
