Community Tasting Note

LFCHALA Likes this wine:

Wednesday, October 31, 2012 - A few weeks ago, I drank a Don Melchor 1999 and qualified as the best Chilean wine and without competitors there. Well, the bidder appeared and overcame. This Almaviva 1997 is a wine with an stunning level of elegance. In the mouth, it is more intense and complex than the Angelus 1997. On the nose, less elegant. Among the three tasters, two elected it the best wine of the night, beating the Chateau Montrose 1995, Chateau Pichon Lalande 2003 and Chateau Angelus 1997. In my opinion, the Chateau Angelus 1997 was better, because deeply appreciate the flavors. Very difficult decision. When you see the evolution of this 1997 Almaviva and Don Melchor 1999, it appears that may be a big mistake, drink some Chilean wines young, as suggested by American magazines such as Wine Spectator.
