EPU Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2021

9.2

Inky in color with a short reddish rim.

Full-bodied and bold with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black plums, cooked cherries, cedar, black currants, tobacco leaf, earth, light vegetables, cola, pencil lead, peppercorn and herbs.

Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Chile. Rich and extracted. Showing nice balance and mouthfeel.

Needs an hour to open up properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Wine Advocate 94 points. Wine Spectator 92 points.

Fruit forward and a good sipping wine. Will also pair nicely with a big piece of steak.

A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Carmenere and 5% Merlot. Aged in (10% new) French Oak barrels for 12 months.

15% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

Close friend gifted us this over 15 years ago. This has stood still and I’m loving it. Typical Bdx profile displaying saddle leather, wood and smoke from the barrel toast. Tannins are moderate and standing tall. Outstanding in my book. — a month ago
