The 1996 Concha y Toro Don Melchor is a notable Cabernet Sauvignon blend from the Puente Alto vineyard in Chile`s Maipo Valley. This vintage is marked by a complex structure, revealing aromas of blackcurrant, dark cherry and hints of leather, alongside herbal undertones and earthy notes. The palate offers a balance of ripe fruit and savoury elements, with well-integrated tannins and a length that suggests further evolution. Concha y Toro, established in 1883, is recognised for its commitment to quality, with Don Melchor serving as its flagship expression from this acclaimed vineyard.

Blackcurrant and menthol on the nose. Milk chocolate, smooth tannic feel, long spicy finish. Lovely quality of fruit here – ripe but not cooked, and with a good savoury snap on the finish. (RH)
