Description
The 2018 harvest began a little later than normal due to a cold and rainy spring followed by a temperate summer. High temperatures in March and April allowed the fruit to finish ripening and also helped compensate for the late start on the harvest, which ended in early May. The quality was very good, and despite yields that were higher than expected, the wines have good aromatic intensity and acidity as well as the proper volume, character, freshness, and rounded tannins.Winery.

Like the others, the 2018 Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is what used to be the Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon and was produced with grapes from Maipo. In this cooler vintage, the wine was produced in a lighter style and has a touch of volatility and more freshness. It's medium-bodied and has fine-grained tannins, moderate varietal character and an approachable personality.
