WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Bright ruby red color. Intense notes of red fruits such as strawberries, cherries, fresh figs, and especially ripe raspberries with layers of herbal notes of mint, basil, and spices, such as pepper. This particularly cool year boosted the expression and juiciness of this wine. The palate is crisp and juicy, with tannins that reflect the cool temperatures of the season.
TASTING NOTES:
Currants, red plums and green olives follow through to a medium-bodied palate with lightly chewy tannins and a crunchy, medium-length finish. Not complex, but quite well-balanced.
- James Suckling, 90 pts.
If there's a wine that encapsulates what Chile can offer as a crowd-pleaser, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon from Los Vascos might just top the list. Sourced from Peralillo in the Colchagua Valley, it boasts a purple hue. The fruit-forward nose features blackberry and cherry notes, along with hints of pepper. Indulgent, clingy and flavorful, the faintly grippy tannins ensure a textured mouthfeel.
- Vinous, 90 pts.
