High-altitude vineyards planted at the foot of the Andes in Chile’s most prestigious and emblematic zone for Cabernet Sauvignon.
The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks for 7 days at 86ºF (30ºC) followed by a 6-day post-fermentation process. Upon completion of the malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged in French oak barrels for 12 months for greater complexity and structure.
Complex and intense aromas of b lack fruits such as blueberries, blackberries, and plums lend great typicity accompanied by a touch of dark chocolate. A wine with tremendous concentration of firm, ripe tannins with a mouth-filling palate and a persistent fruity finish. Enjoy with beef or lamb stew. Also excellent with aged cheeses.
Aromas of black cherry, olive, green herb and tobacco amount to a classic Maipo Valley nose. Racy acidity gives this Cabernet a juicy outlook, while brambly berry, cassis and olive flavours finish with a bit of spice.
