Carmen Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 1999

Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileBig mocha vanilla, spicy, peppery nose with sappy, cassis overtones. This is a rich red with lots of flavour intensity and more rich fruit and tannins. It's young and still astringent but should settle down with time. Ripe cheese is the answer for the moment.Tasted: 01 March 2002Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
