| Notes | "The 2016 Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon was produced with grapes from Alto Maipo that fermented in stainless steel vats after a cold soak. The wine then aged in French oak barrels for one year. It's varietal and clean, straightforward, balanced and easy to drink. 300,000 bottles produced." (Wine Advocate) "Aromas of fresh berries, baking spices and chocolate get this wine going. The palate bursts at the seams, boasting a toasty black-fruit flavor with grip and intensity."
