Veramonte Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

I received this Chile Cab from a professor at Stony Brook University as a gift last July, which I saved for a while. A native of Chile, he insisted this Veramonte Reserva was a great wine from the fertile Colchagua Valley region, known for their reds (yet also producing whites) not far from his hometown of Santiago. I opened this red with a traditional Italian spaghetti bolognese and found it to be sweet at first taste with a semi-dry finish, a very smooth yet rich finish. This is a nice wine to pair with similar meals, wine news rated 92 points. Pick up a bottle if you get the chance.
