Frontera Cabernet-Sauvingnon Merlot

Bottle by Conchay Y Toro in Chile (no year)

750 mL for $8.45 (Mapleview LCBO, Burlington)

12.5% alcohol by volume

Bottle notes: aromas of pums, tobacco, cacao. Fruity wine with medium body and a good finish.

My comments: Good taste up front but has heavy tannins in the finish. I wouldn’t recommend it as a sipping wine, but it would compliment a heavy meat (lamb or roast beast).
