Puente Alto, Valle del Maipo, Region del Valle Central, ChileA Chilean icon, the 2020 Don Melchor is both generous and restrained, evolving beautifully in the glass to reveal layers of captivating cassis, eucalyptus, forest floor, stoney minerality, and graphite. Nuanced notes of subtle cedar, florals, and nutmeg reflect well integrated oak, while hints of black olives add a savoury touch. With impressive concentration and density while maintaining focus, the palate offers remarkable structure, highlighted by a firm yet composed texture. The long, balanced finish delivers finesse, making it a wine that invites reflection and rewards patience.Tasted: 15 January 2025Tasted by: Prices:
