CARO, alliance between 2 wine cultures (French and Argentine), 2 noble grape varieties (Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec), and 2 wine families (Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) and Nicolas Catena). Blend of 75% Malbec & 25% Cabernet Sauvignon. Complex aromas of dark berry fruits, smoke and earthy spice. On palate blackberry, raspberry and sweet cherry, cedar, nuts and burnt cacao. Developed tannins, well balanced on lingering finish ending with espresso and mineral tones. Great but keep in Cellar for few years. — 7 years ago
Can definitely taste some acidic notes, not too sweet, and a great balance of dryness. If you prefer a wine not too sweet ava overwhelming, this is a good choice. — 8 years ago
When drunk side by side with the 2001 Lafite Rothschild this seemed a little past due. The nose is incredible: cigar box, cedar and leather are predominant. The fruit is secondary but appeared more after a half hour. — 8 years ago
Dark fruit overload - mellowed after an hour - paired nicely with some adobo chicken — 8 years ago

4/15/17 La Cabrera with Tyson - Buenos Aires — 8 years ago
The Rothschild family has owned the estate for five generations (since 1868). A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot, deep red with fruit, floral and sweet oaky spice aromas. Flavors of ripe cherry and cacao, good structure and balance with silky tannins carry to lingering finish. Nice now. — 8 years ago
"I make wine at Lafite and Latour, but my heart is at Calon"... I can see why Nicolas Alexandre Marquis de Segur said these iconic words after having this wine in my glass. The nose is so inviting with warm spice, cigar smoke, embers, and toast. Raspberry syrup, plums, vanilla, and toffee on the palate. Nice thread of smoke throughout with nice balancing fresh fruit. What an enjoyable wine! 20 months in new oak - obviously the more accessible style the new owners are going for... the Pinot the other night gave an experience, this one tells a story. — 8 years ago

Everyone on this site knows the flavor profile. However, props to the couple that crushed 2 bottles of Dom and decided to have the Mouton because they had the '96 Lafite weeks ago in Vienna. — 11 years ago
