Description

  • Oaked
  • Ripe fruit aromas
  • Subtle tobacco leaf
  • Fine-grained tannins

This Cabernet Sauvignon shows ripe fruit aromatics including blackcurrant, blueberries and cassis combined with a slight tobacco leaf note. The palate is fresh with clear fruit definition; fine-grained tannins and balanced acidity lead to a long lingering finish. Ready to drink, will hold for the next 5-6 years.

Sourced from Isla de Maipo, mid section of the Maipo Valley, 60 kms. from the Pacific Ocean. Mild Mediterranean, with a cooling influence of afternoon breezes from the Pacific Ocean.

The grapes were hand harvested during the third week of March. The grapes are 100 % destemmed and undergo a cold maceration for 2-3 days. Alcoholic fermentation is spontaneous, and once finished the wine was left in contact with the skins for 5-8 days. Malolactic fermentation is completed in tank. The wine was aged for 7-9 months in used French barriques and concrete vats.

Since 1934 and for over four generations, the winemakers family has specialised in producing wines that are noted for their sense of place, purity and balance. With this in mind, they carry out sustainable vinegrowing practices and traditional winemaking methods to achieve wines that represent them as well as their vineyards.
