2 x Errazuriz Max Reserva Cabernet 2009/2010 Aconcagua Valley
The Max vineyards are named after the estate's founder, Don Maximiano Errazuriz, who made his first plantings in Aconcagua in 1870. This wine comes grapes grown mainly in the Max 2 and Max 5 plots, and is aged in French and American oak barrels for 12 months. A bright ruby red wine, with a sweetly expressive nose of red fruit, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Fine and plentiful tannins and juicy black fruit add up to a friendly and enjoyable palate. Partners equally well with a rare steak as it does with pasta in a primavera sauce.
