Errazuriz MAX RESERVA Merlot Aconcagua Valley Chile
Description: Merlot Reserva is a big wine with rich layers of ripe fruit. The intense blackberry aromas are offset by an earthy component, a seeming contradiction that is actually quite characteristic of Chilean Merlot. The long ageing in French oak barrels contributes an integrated vanilla bean character. On the palate, the wine has a silky texture, with forward berry fruit, a lot of spice, and full, soft tannins. Coffee and tobacco draw forward on the finish. It will be interesting to watch the development of this wine over the next ten years. (6 x 75 cl)
