Valdivieso Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 1998
Region del Valle Central, ChileThere's a dash of cabernet franc and malbec in this wine and aged in 44 percent new French and American oak. Gorgeous nose of blackberry fruit, cedar, pepper, toasty oak and coffee. Round, supple tannins that are balanced but young. Cassis, minty, smoky, prune and blackberry flavours with a vanilla sheen on top. One of the best yet from Valdivieso, very stylish.Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | Specialty |
