Attractive, ripe black fruit with some baked dark plums, black olives, blackcurrants, cumin and licorice on the nose. Hints of red chili and mint, too. This is a full-bodied cabernet, imbued with plenty of fine-grained tannins. Tight, but very juicy at the same time. Give it a year to soften. Drink from 2024. ... More details

Winery
A serious, elegant, full-bodied wine with good structure and polished tannins. The different components of the fruit obtained from Las Vertientes Vineyard give life to a Cabernet Sauvignon with freshness and great balance. In some years, a bit of Cabernet Franc from the same property is added to the final blend to lend the wine greater firmness and tension. The final harmony is reached as it ages in French oak barrels, mostly of second use to allow the character of the terroir to be clearly identifiable.

Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon

Since their conception in 18th century France, Cabernet Sauvignon grapes have flourished across the Old and New Worlds and have changed the way we think about red wine forever. Their sharp and astringent nature has a wonderful ability to mellow and round with age, and when helped by being blended with Merlot and Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc varietals – as is done in Bordeaux and elsewhere – the results can be truly remarkable. What is most special about Cabernet Sauvignon grapes is the fact that they have a true affinity for oak, and when aged in barrels made of this fragrant wood, the wine which comes out of them a few years later holds an amazing array of flavors and aromas, making Cabernet Sauvignon based wines some of the most memorable in the world. Single variety bottles from the New World made from this grape are also increasing in popularity, as the strong flavors and full-bodied nature of these wines is a great match for many global cuisines.

Country: Chile

Whilst being widely regarded as definitively 'New World' as a wine producing country, Chile has actually been cultivating grapevines for wine production for over five hundred years. The Iberian conquistadors first introduced vines to Chile with which to make sacramental wines, and although these were considerably different in everything from flavor, aroma and character to the wines we associate with Chile today, the country has a long and interesting heritage when it comes to this drink. Chilean wine production as we know it first arose in the country in the mid to late 19th century, when wealthy landowners and industrialists first began planting vineyards as a way of adopting some European class and style. They quickly discovered that the hot climate, sloping mountainsides and oceanic winds provided a perfect terroir for quality wines, and many of these original estates remain today in all their grandeur and beauty, still producing the wines which made the country famous.
