ONA Rapel Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Rapel Valley, Central Valley, Chile
An elegant blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere and Syrah from Rapel Valley. Quite obvious Carmenere characters with a lot of vegetal( tomato leaves as most may account and pepper) This is a chunky wine with a feeling of gun powder and smoke, it develops well after a little bit of breathing with notes of plum and cinnamon and vanilla kind of sweet spices. Medium+ intensity. On the palate, it is very tannin-focused with good extraction of fruit and dryness. Good balance with medium acidity and a round body. Lingers pretty long( medium+) A very notable Chilean wine that is definitely above good and the average. 88points. Drink from 2012-2015. Tasted in Beijing on 17th October
