Description
The grapes for this wine come from the Melipilla area of the Maipo Valley that catches the cool breezes from the PacificOcean. This cooling effect retains a perfumed floral quality in the wine that complements the black cherry and cassis aromas. The palate is full and strong with elegant tannins. The complex flavour profile includes cherry, sweet spice and a smoky note from the oak ageing. A very well balanced wine with a long, persistent finish.Product Reviews

Decanter World Wine Awards
Ripe plums and earthy mint on the nose. Tannins are fine and firm with the palate not being too sweet. Lots of green notes of capsicum and baking spices along dark fruits. Quite classic Maipo style. Bronze Medal.
