Casa Rivas Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 1999

Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileDark colour. Super spicy, peppery nose with herbal cassis and jam and just a touch of gamy garrigue. Rich round entry with smoky, cassis jam fruit and a lingering pepper and licorice root finish. A big vintage that will need more time to come around. Good value for those who love their reds big and gamy.Tasted: 01 March 2002Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
