Grape

Cabernet Sauvignon

Origin
A single-variety Cabernet Sauvignon from Clos Quebrada de Macúl, the vineyard of the renowned Domus Aurea winery. Planted in 1970, it was one of Chile's first hillside vineyards, on a site specifically chosen for its hard terrain, creating lower grape yields.
Taste
Deep, purple-tinged ruby red wine, with an expressive nose of plum and blackberry, accented with aromatic herb and toasty oak notes. Well integrated tannins and bright fruit make a satisfying palate.
Enjoy
Drink with rare beef fillet, venison steaks or red meat casseroles.

    Full Bodied & Smooth

    Had it not been for the manager of my local store I would have walked straight past this hidden gem. The label does not exactly inspire confidence but the content most cetainly did. I am really getting back into Cabernet Sauvignon and there will be few such decent examples at this kind of price. If you like a nice full-bodied wine with a wonderfully smooth taste, this is definitely for you.

    Quite yummy

    The young chap at my local store recommended this wine, and I'm glad he did - it's exactly what I look for in a Cabernet Sauvignon, smooth but full-bodied. Love it!

    Good quality wine

    Would never have picked this bottle up had it not been for the reviews. Well rounded flavour with a decent body. Would recommend

Press Reviews

  • Full-bodied Chilean (2010 Vintage)

    "This is a hefty, full-bodied Chilean cabernet with such depth of colour it almost stains the glass purple. The fruit is dense but not jammy with flavours of brambles and black plums with some tartness on the finish and a bit of tannic backbone as well. (Tom Bruce-Gardyne, The Herald, 9th March 2013)"
