The glass-etching inky, ruby '06 Concha y Toro Cabernet Sauvignon 'Don Melchor' is a beautifully layered wine. Lovely aromas of ripe plums, oak spices, leather and cocoa meld into sweet raisin and cassis flavors. This precise, well-balanced Old World-style wine finishes long, warm and creamy.

Really good. Very unique and enjoyable. Perfect fit in between the barnyardy Bordeauxs and the fruit bomb Napa cabs.

Tobacco and leather on the nose. Taste of plum and dark fruit. Really don't drink to many Cabs other than California cabs. Really nice juice!
