TASTING NOTES

An elegant, pure, dynamic, tense, and vibrant wine in constant movement. This is its character, reflecting an exceptional vintage that has given us an authentic, refined and noble expression of our Millahue Terroir. The firm, elegant, structured Cabernet Sauvignon provides lineal delivery of fine red fruit along with tannins that are smooth, vibrant and rather tense and mouth-filling. Meanwhile, the precise, fine and dynamic Cabernet Franc contributes minerality and delicate linearity through to the long and pleasant finish. It also delivers spices that fill us with inspiring movement that, together with the perfect, well-balanced acidity, craft a wine packed with flavours, giving us a complexity that is easy to read.

This was a relatively cool year: the cold spring and average summer temperatures facilitated the rapid ripening of tannins that are crunchy and dynamic. Then autumn was cool, and so the ripe fruit was very expressive, dark-colored, enigmatic, and profound.

A beautiful dark, shiny color. On the nose, it is very expressive, pure, precise and aromatic. In the mouth, it has an outstandingly fine structure and is elegant with ripe, expressive fruit. The tannins are tense, noble, and silky.
