Vina Tarapaca - Gran Reserva Etiqueta Negra Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 (750ml)

A wine with aromas of raspberries and cherries that provide freshness, along with underlying notes of tobacco, plum and cassis. After aging for 18 months in French oak barrels, the wine acquires spicy notes of cloves, licorice, red peppers and vanilla. On the palate it is tasty and balanced, with marked notes of cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant, which are typical of a wine which originates in sandy soil. The tannins are round and present due to the gravel and angular stones of the soil. The mineral soils of volcanic origin impart a long finish. CRITIC ACCLAIM WE 91 | Wine Enthusiast 91 points This is a full-bodied and flavorful red that opens with peppercorn, aniseed and thyme. Oak flavors are well-integrated on the dense palate. Notes of berries, spices, thyme and coffee are supported by firm tannins and enough acidity to freshen the smooth finish. Baking spices in the aftertaste make this wine a great match for your favorite dark chocolate. — Jesica Vargas JS 93 | James Suckling 9
