Concha y Toro Terrunyo Andes Block Las Terrazas Cabernet Sauvignon Pirque Vineyard 2013

Pirque, Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileRich open New World style with floral, blackberry, cassis and pepper aromas. The palate is classic mint/bay leaf flavours laced with tobacco, cedar, licorice and dense, rich, fine-grained tannins. The plate is equally big with a whack of alcohol. A concentrated, rich-fruited cabernet that is best served with a grilled steak served rare. The 2013 is 97 percent cabernet sauvignon and 3 percent cabernet franc from the 1978 planted Las Terrazas Block, Pirque Vineyard, Maipo Valley some 650 metres above sea level. The wine spends 14 months in French oak barrels. Drink now through 2023 especially with grilled beef and mature hard cheeses.Tasted: 09 December 2016Tasted by: Prices:
