Retail $14. 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Carmenere, 3% Syrah. When looking for value, there is perhaps no other wine region that delivers more than Chile. And when it comes to producers? Concho y Toro has to be near the top of the list. Sure, it is a huge (really huge) producer, but the wines are varietally correct, balanced, and tasty. Case in point. This Cab has plenty of smoky Mexican chocolate on the nose with fruit and an herbal quality. The palate is layered with fruit and acidity, making this a fantastic choice for the neighborhood barbecue party where somebody's cousin Cletus is going to go to town on both the brisket and this wine.

A little chalky on open, but after 5 to 10 minutes it was excellent. Very nice fruit and mouthfeel at a weekday price. Buy more.
