With over 20 vintages of 90+ point scores from the world’s top wine critics, Don Melchor enjoys an unparalleled record for demonstrating Chile’s ability to create an exquisite world-class wine. Crafted by internationally renowned winemaker Enrique Tirado, this wine represents an assemblage of Cabernet Sauvignons and Cabernet Franc originating from 7 distinct, yet contiguous sub-divided blocks with vines ranging from 25-30 years old. Each contributes something special to the final blend. PRODUCTION AREA: Puente Alto Vineyard, Maipo Valley, Chile. GRAPE VARIETIES: Predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, with small amounts of Cabernet Franc. TASTING NOTES: Don Melchor is a bright ruby red.

Fresh red fruit features in a well-balanced wine with soft tannins, giving way to a refined, persistent finish. FOOD PAIRING: Don Melchor Cabernet Sauvignon is appropriate with any hearty dish, especially lamb and steak. RECOGNITION: Don Melchor Cabernet Sauvignon has a Wine Spectator score of 95.
