The grapes for this Cabernet head directly from the Maipo Valley, Chile’s oldest wine-growing region and beyond doubt the best growing region for this variety in Chile. This deep ruby red coloured wine displays intense and sophisticated aromas of cassis, plum, cherry and wild berries and are enhanced by some black pepper and smoked traces. Its full body and structure are what takes precedence in the mouth, along with its round and robust tannins and long, persistent finish. It goes well with all kinds of red meats, pate, lamb and game included. It keeps its own against spices in sauces or strong condiments and it is an especially good idea to serve it with dishes that include this variety in their cooking (Boeuf Bourguignon is the ultimate example). When pairing it with cheese, choose dry and/or strong-flavoured ones along the lines of Brie, Gorgonzola, Camembert or Cheddar |
