Concha y Toro Cabernet Sauvignon Don Melchor 1997

Puente Alto, Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileLeafy, cassis, minty tobacco aromas with smoky, gamey background but in a subtle way. More Bordeaux style on the palate, moderately tannic but rich and chunky. Ripe blackberry and cassis fruit with a spicy, sausage finish. Good and straightforward but not perfectly ripe for the vintage.Tasted: 01 March 2000Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
