Vinedo Chadwick, Viña Errazuriz 2014

This is a wine that simultaneously defines elegance and power. Complex aromas of blueberry, black currant, and black licorice. Full-body yet refined and beautiful with stunning length and complexity. It has a transparency that shows such greatness and beauty. Half the normal production. Has an energy and brightness. Chile's first perfect wine and well deserved. Better in 2020.

This brilliant Maipo Cabernet comes from a vineyard in Puente Alto, planted in 1999. There were only 480 cases made in 2014 (just over half the usual amount) so demand for this wine has been high. It's a wonderfully subtle, nuanced, textured wine with floral, almost Lafite-like grace and poise.
