2019 Don Melchor, Puente Alto Cabernet Sauvignon, Maipo Valley, Chile

Description

The 2019 Don Melchor has an intense nose of dense blackcurrant, accompanied by gentle nuances of toast, gravel and green herb. This wine has a wonderful elegance, with dense blackcurrant and blackberry-vanilla fruit, and a wonderful freshness which stops it from being remotely rich. The texture is charming, with a light level of barely perceptible, ultra-soft tannins which melt away upon tasting. This is a wine which combines the sweetness and ripeness of Chile with the finesse and class of Bordeaux. It is delicious. Drink 2022–2035.
