El Esteco Don David Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Calchaqui Valley, Salta, North, ArgentinaRoasted onions, cured meats and freshly ground coffee fill this fuller Calchaqui Valley cabernet sauvignon. Earthy branch, roasted yams, cassis and black cherry back it up, while firm, rustically grippy tannins frame it all. Twelve months in new barrels explains the woody intensity here, while a warming rush of heat on the espresso-lined finish welcomes pairing with grilled meats. Simple, effective.Tasted: 06 September 2016Tasted by: Prices:
