Concha y Toro Sunrise Cabernet Sauvignon 2004

Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Country of origin: Chile
Wine appellation: Central Valley
Vintage: 2004
Alcohol content: 13.5%
Color: dark garnet red
Bouquet: book example of proper Cab, black currant, black cherries, all supported by light coffee and black chocolate, precise, but a bit boring
Taste: medium body, black currant, black sour cherries, very good acidity and tannins despite the age, all nicely supported by black chocolate, longer finish
Overall score: 4+7+11.5+6.5+7=86
Price: CZK 199
Stopper: cork
4th bottle of this wine tasted. Amazing conditions despite 11 years old. Comparing to Mondavi this has more acidity and tannins and has no feel of "cola" sweetness. For comparison please refer to the last tasting from March 2015.
