Ventisquero Grey Glacier Single Block Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

I last tasted the 2014 vintage of this wine and loved it, it was my favorite wine of last year’s Chilean wine fest … Well it’s back! One can never assume that a follow on vintage will be able to repeat past excellence … So … Dark in color with a nice dark berry nose. On the mid palate the wine displays some nice smooth dark cherries along with some nice oaky notes. On the medium length finish the wine displays some nice smooth tannins and acidity. It is really quite good. Another lovely vintage. I would give it an 88+. Yumm.
