Marques Casa Concha Merlot 2011

• Description
  Tannic with a big grip and lots of flavour. Concha y Toro produces a wide range of styles of wines in several regions. Their Marques De Casa label is consistently great year after year. This one offers big mocha and espresso aromas from the oak aging supported by fleshy ripe blackberries and black plums. Rich and smooth. It's more subtle on the nose than opens big, wide and satisfying on the palate.

• Tasting note
  Dark and deep red. Rich and deftly balanced yet muscular red, with layers of complex currant, spice, wild berry and plum. Show o ff a nice touch of vanilla oak and mocha, adding a nice dimension. Though tannic now, this wine should evolve. There’s already some complexity beginning to develop out of its firm, quiet, supple core. Red and white meats in classic, elegant preparations; pastas or legumes over intensely flavored sauces with beef, tomato and mushrooms.
