Country: Chile / Reserva Privada
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Maule Valley
Winery: Viña Casas Patronales /
Despite showing an herbal nose that includes tomato leaf, carob and creamy oak, this solid, chunky Cab comes around on the palate, where black fruit, pepper and mild herbal flavors set up a warm, toasty, satisfying finish. This comes across as Chilean Cabernet in every way.
