Incredible wine! Bought it at Concha&Toro store after visiting the winery in 2009.This bottle has followed me on 3 different house and cellars.I was afraid the bottle could be damaged after so many moves.Left in decanter for 2.5h and that was crucial to awake the beast. Cork gave us a hard time to extract. I was surprised to see that color was still deep ruby with only small hues of orange revealing it’s age.I bet it has lost part of its fruits but still amazing nose bringing cassis, licorice, spices. After 1h in decanter it started a incredible sous bois which remained until the last drop. Perfectly balanced and no bitterness in the end. Masterpiece!

Bold Malbec with Catena blood. Explosion of plums abs ripe red fruits. Hints of spices and vanilla. I believe it has a little over acidity but it gets better while breathing in the glass. Better with food. Drink it before 2025.
