2000 Morande Vitisterra Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

[dananne]

This one got a WE 89 and a Best Buy, though I fail to see what the fuss was about. Deep ruby in color, with flashes of purple inside. Vegetal on both nose and palate, as we've found with some other lower-end Chilean Cabs, with herbal green pepper notes and olive flavors on the back end. We like the basic Morande bottling better, though the Carmenere is preferred to any of their Cabs that we've had. Alc. 13%. We paid $12.
