Winemaker's Notes:

Deep red in color. Excellent fruit concentration. Ripe black berries and dried fruits on the palate combined with a complex and elegant attack. This wine presents a spicy fi nish with toffee and chocolate notes. A true refl ection of the Upper Maipo Valley.

Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Cabernet Franc, 1% Merlot
