Tasting Notes and Scores
In 2008 Chile was entrenched in a commitment to ripeness. Don Melchor took another path. Made during a warm year, this blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Franc, is purple with a brick dust meniscus and dominated by restrained flavors of black fruit jam, raspberries and hints of camphor. On the palate it has just a hint of lushness with some warmth and fine, reactive tannins growing ever more complex. Pleasant already but the future is truly promising.

97% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc. Aged for 15 months in French oak barrels (72% new, 28% second-use). A little awkward tannin quality and out of kilter at the moment. Pretty chewy still. (JR)
