Valle del Colchagua, Valle del Rapel, Region del Valle Central, ChileIntense spicy, clove, cardamom, black pepper, sappy cassis nose. Big, rich, ripe palate with substantial tannins. Blackberry jam, vanilla, smoky, peppery, cassis, clove flavours with a leather, vanilla, coffee finish. A gutsy wine with lots of intensity but needs three to five years to show its best.Tasted: 23 July 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
