Almaviva is the Bordeaux-Chilean joint venture between Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Concha y Toro, based in Puente Alto in the Maipo Valley. The 2014 blends 68% Cabernet Sauvignon with 22% Carmenère, 8% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot aged 18 months in 100% new french oak, giving cassis, black fruits, cedar, smoke and dark chocolate. Full-bodied and dense, with round, refined tannins, it balances power with real finesse and a persistent finish. Drinking well now, it will continue to develop and offer pleasure for another decade. Pair with grilled steak or lamb.
