Concha Y Toro Don Melchor 2009 is a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon from the Alto Maipo Valley of Chile. Don Melchor is the jewel in the crown of the Concha y Toro portfolio. It is named after the founder of the estate, Don Melchor de Concha y Toro, who founded what would go on to become one of the most successful wine companies in the world, in 1883. The wine is produced from Cabernet vines in the prime Andes-influenced terroir of Puente Alto in Alto Maipo. "Complex aromas in this with mint, eucalyptus and currants. Full body, with round and velvety tannins yet reserved and refined. It`s nutty and juicy too. Savoury finish. Drink or hold. A long life ahead of it. A blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Cabernet Franc. Made in the hottest harvest ever." James Suckling, 2014
"The 2009 Don Melchor is a blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Cabernet Franc from one of the best terroirs in Chile for Cabernet Sauvignon. 2009 was a warm, powerful vintage, but the microclimate of Puente Alto helps to keep the fruit and acidity, and the wine has lots of notes of beef blood, black berries and licorice. It feels serious, concentrated and ripe, with round tannins, moderate acidity and good length, with some notes of dark chocolate and tobacco toward the finish. Drink now-2018." - Luis Gutierrez
