Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileSweaty garrigue meaty gamy aromas with ripe blackberry jam undertones and sweaty saddle. Similar flavours in the mouth with smooth rich textures and hints of orange chocolate and tobacco in the finish. Slightly odd-ball in character but always well made. The blend is 50/20/20/10 cabernet sauvignon/carmenère/petite sirah and merlot.Tasted: 02 March 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
