A fruit forward Chilean Cabernet from the Colcghagua Valley. One to remember, albeit for its introductory characteristics to the finer aspects of red wine, especially given the fact that its roots are ungrafted and have yet to have been plagued by Phylloxera. Definitely a wine for a blooming novice and one to recommend to those who aren't familiar with the beauty and intricacy of Cabernets.
ADDENDUM: Not nearly as complex as Concha y Toro's Don Melchor (its 2005 vintage received its highest rating yet), but still a great cabernet.
