"Superb aromas of cassis, rose petals and mint, as well as lavender and rocks. Full-bodied with incredible fruit density. Complex yet agile and lively. Perfectly integrated tannins. Develops on the palate and shows the structure of a Bordeaux premier cru, while retaining a Chilean identity. A blend of biodynamically grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot. It's a real pleasure to taste it now, but it'll be at its peak in 2019. Even better than the incredible 2012." (James Suckling 2015) Delivery in wooden case for orders delivered in France of 6 bottles of this wine.
