The Don Melchor vineyard is located on the northern bank of the River Maipo in the Andean foothills, at an altitude of 650 masl. The vineyard comprises 127 hectares: 90% is planted with Cabernet Sauvignon; 7.1% with Cabernet Franc and 1% with Petit Verdot. The vines in the old vineyard average more than 35 years old. 

This deep purple-coloured wine is aromatically very expressive, complex and intense with red fruit and berry aromas and floral notes of violets. It fills the mouth, displaying depth throughout, with a smooth entry, great energy and breadth and a long, expressive finish. With its elegant mouthfeel, this wine showcases harmony, depth and elegance.
