Country of origin: Chile
Wine appellation: Curicó valley
Vintage: 2006
Alcohol content: 14.0%
Color: dark garnet red
Bouquet: coffee, toasts, canned black currant, vanilla
Taste: medium to full body, black currant, black sour cherries, good tannins and still nice acidity, very round and visible mouth profile, coffee, mouth drying tannins (already nicely aged), vanilla, good integration of fruit and oak, chocolate, longer finish
Recommended food pairing:chocolate
Overall score: 4+8+12+7+7=87
Price: CZK 250
Stopper: single piece cork
Comparing it to 2006 vintage tasted recently, this one is more adult and nicely structured with very nice toasted aromas and coffee tones. Alcohol this time is perfectly integrated. Excellent bottle maturity. Man style of Cab Sauv (Lenka still prefers Californian sweet tannins ;-)).
