Almaviva 2011 is a high-end Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant red blend from Puente Alto, which exploits prime alluvial terraces in the Maipo Valley. The joint venture focuses on producing a wine of Bordeaux structure with Chilean density. This deep dark profile offers concentrated aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, cigar box and black olive. The palate is massive yet polished, showcasing structural power and dense, plush texture built for long-term cellaring. Available here in magnum.
95 Vinous
A Cabernet Sauvignon with 25% Carménère, 5% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot from Puente Alto, Maipo. Maroon-red in the glass, this wine was harvested between April and May. Lovely liqueur aromas of cassis and maraschino cherry mix with menthol, dried leaf and sour cherry jelly. Active tannins, medium freshness and dry fruits in the mouth. The jammy aftertaste is part of a potent but balanced profile.Joaquin Hidalgo1st March 2020
18 Jancis Robinson
The famous Philippe de Rothschild/Concha y Toro joint venture. 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Carmenère, 5% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot. Bright dark crimson. Very complex, sophisticated nose with clean bordeaux influence. Super-bright, fresh fruit. Great precision. Luscious ripeness and no Carmenère greenness. Energy and polish. Balance. Rather unashamedly drier tannins than in most Chilean Cabernets. Clearly set for the long term. If Ch Mouton Rothschild 2011 averaged £350 a bottle, I suppose £100 is a fair price for this delightfully subtle wine… (JR)
