Château Los Boldos 2008 Grand Cru Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot (Cachapoal Valley)

Country: Chile / Grand Cru
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot Cachapoal Valley
Winery: Château Los Boldos /

Light mint and herbal aromas get it going, followed by dry, complex scents of tobacco, licorice, leather and blackberry. This is 80% Cabernet and 20% Merlot, and it’s a bit angular on the tongue but the flavors of cassis, black cherry and plum are juicy and bold. Turns more oaky with airing, especially on the long, herbal finish.
