The Cabernet Sauvignon from Maipo in Isla de Maipo that was introduced in 2018 was also bottled as 2019 Reelegido Vineyard and marked with Lot #110. It was produced with fruit from 65+-year-old vines on alluvial soils with round stones (40-50 centimeters in size). The vineyard produces 1.5 kilos per plant of small bunches. They feel they were more accurate with the harvest date this time to achieve a fresher and more elegant wine with 14.1% alcohol and a pH of 3.47 and 6.14 grams of acidity. As with the majority of wines, it fermented in open vats with native yeasts with the cap punched down by hand and matured over two winters in well-seasoned, neutral French oak barrels. It feels harmonious, balanced, powerful and elegant with fine-grained tannins, varietal and precise.
Ripe and savory nose with pretty currants and hints of iron and graphite. Black olives and tobacco leaf, too. Full-bodied on the palate with plenty of fine-grained tannins and juicy fruit. Pretty compact, concentrated and long.
