Don Melchor Puente Alto Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Great vintage for this wine. Could have seen more years in bottle easily but desirable nonetheless. High altitude cab blend with lots fruit, oak, and light spice notes. Cheers. — 12 days ago

Casa Lapostolle

Clos Apalta Limited Release Carménère Blend 1997

Medium ruby , quite wide ruby / garnet rim , but very little bricking . Very young looking . Quite deep on the nose with dusty spiced cassis and dark fruits and coffee , slightly toasty , leather. On the palate quite dark fruits , cassis , spiced plum , roasted peppers , with those coffee notes. Quite sweet on the mid palate with ripe but still noticeable tannin, good balanced and acidity and balanced alcohol . Pretty decent length with a leather , coffee tinged finish . Still drinking very well , and will do over the next 5-8 years . — 14 days ago

Still a good cab but not as good as previous vintages. A bit unfortunate, but this wine has gone full blown super market class. — 24 days ago
