Carmen Grande Vidure Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 1997

Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileA 60/40 blend of carmeneré/cabernet sauvignon. Open vanilla, chocolate, sweaty leather, cassis and plum jam aromas. Very rich with good concentration of flavours of black pepper, vanilla, spicy, blackberry jam with an earthy mint background. Slightly dry tannins give it some grip and would benefit from a few years aging to fully round out.Tasted: 01 March 2000Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
