Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Dan Trcka rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

The 2009 Concha Y Toro Serie Riberas Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is a medium to full bodied, FRUITY to integrated wine, with intense aromas of dominating sandalwood, blackberry and black cherry on the nose and cedar and vanilla on the palate. It has a nice structure with nice acidity, refined tannins (decant for 1 hour to fully open up) and medium to long, chalky finish. Good to drink now, but should be at its best 2014 to 2018 and beyond. My impression: NICE to BEAUTIFUL, 90-91 pts - a recommended wine - another fine example and at great price from Concha Y Toro. Stock up! Tasted Jan/12.
Darlene Myers rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Talk about great value wine. This full bodied wine with it's deep red ruby color has aromas of blackberry, chocolate and toasted coffee on the nose. It's fresh and easy to drink, and goes great with grilled foods as we approach barbecue season.
