Cabernet Sauvignon

About this wine

Hailing from the renowned Puente Alto terroir in Chile, Don Melchor is an iconic expression of South American Cabernet Sauvignon. This full-bodied red wine showcases the remarkable potential of its Andean origins, offering a robust structural profile marked by high acidity and a warming 14.5% ABV. Long recognized as a benchmark for Chilean winemaking, its deep concentration and gripping character make it a natural partner for rich, protein-heavy meals. It pairs exceptionally well with grilled beef, roasted lamb, wild game meat, and savory poultry dishes.
