von Siebenthal Parcela # 7

von Siebenthal, Parcela # 7, 750 ml
Variety: Assemblage
Viña von Siebenthal, Panquehue, Aconcagua Valley
Composition: 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Petit Verdot, 15% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc
Vintage: 2010
Oenologist: Mauro von Siebenthal & Darwin Oyarce

Pairing:   This assemblage wine loves grilled dishes, as the nature of the meat mirrors the bitter edge of the tannin in the wine. Serve at 16-18°C.

Tasting notes:

Colour: Deep ruby red colour with violet reflections.
Aromas: It has a subtle red currant and redberry-scented bouquet with touches of sous-bois, hazelnut and aromatic herbs that are very attractive.
Palate: The palate is medium-bodied with subtle tannins and pure red berry fruit mixed with black pepper, sage and cured meats. It is very well-balanced and fresh, the finish supple and in tune with the oak.

It has a subtle red currant and redberry-scented bouquet with touches of sous-bois, hazelnut and aromatic herbs that are very attractive.  The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and pure red berry fruit mixed with black pepper, sage and cured meats. It is very well-balanced and fresh, the finish supple and in tune with the oak.
