The El Niño conditions of the harvest are apparent on the nose, with a damp, foresty quality and present but pleasing herbal notes that eventually take center stage with aeration. \u003cbr\u003eThe palate is soft and elegant, concluding with powdery tannins and soft but persistent acidity. A lovely mix of sumptuous and understated, this is squarely in its secondary phase and is best enjoyed within the next five years.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"In 1997, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, Chairman of the Advisory Board of Baron Philippe de Rothschild S.A., and Eduardo Guilisasti Tagle, Chairman of Viña Concha y Toro S.A., sealed a partnership agreement with a view to create an exceptional Franco-Chilean wine called Almaviva.
