Description:
Attractive brilliant aspect, with pale green tones. Lifted fragrant nose, a tropical fruit salad, with underlying typical Sauvignon Blanc aromas, of figs and a sweet vegetal note.
This wine was carefully made to reflect the full character of Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon, full-bodied and bursting with rich, ripe fruit and soft sweet tannins. This is achieved by carefully selecting and managing the vineyards for perfect fruit ripening. New micro-oxygenation techniques also allow us to integrate the sweet flavours of oak for greater complexity without allowing the wood to dominate the wine. (12 x 75 cl)
Appealing red fruits and cassis on the nose, soft, ripe supple tannins and medium bodied. This 100% Merlot from the Central Valley has spent 9 months in stainless steel tanks with micro-oxygenation and 50% with French and American staves. As a result this wine is am attractive dark red colour. Aromas and flavours of ripe plums, sweet spices, coffee, chocolate, and delicate smoky notes give way to asoft and smooth palate with ripe tannins giving good length and structure. (12 x 75 cl)
