De Martino 2013 Single Vineyard Las Cruces Old Vine Red (Cachapoal Valley)

Country: Chile / Single Vineyard Las Cruces Old Vine
Variety: Malbec-Carménère Cachapoal Valley
Winery: De Martino /

Chilean winemakers liked 2013 for its coolness, and this Malbec-Carmenère blend shows racy acidity as its defining component. Aromas of blackberry and plum are floral and smoky. High acidity makes for a tight, pulling palate with flavors of red plum and oak spice. A muscular finish is still pumping with acidity, so this stays bold to the end; drink through 2030.
