This consistently outstanding example of Chilean Cabernet shines yet again in the 2014 vintage. The fruit profile is a bit riper than usual, resulting in quite soft texture and immediate enjoyability, yet with no pruny notes. Although the structure is soft, the wine is very expressive in aroma and deep in flavor, with savory notes and subtle wood beautifully intertwined with fruit notes. Drink now or hold for 5 years.
